Colorectal neoplasm and acromegaly
Pituitary, 2006The risk for colorectal carcinoma in acromegaly remains controversial. In our earlier study, we have demonstrated that the risk of colorectal carcinoma in Asian Indians with acromegaly is not increased and after this report, routine colonoscopy in our patients with acromegaly was abandoned.

Primary colorectal lymphoma, carcinoids (neuroendocrine tumors), and gastrointestinal stromal tumors comprise a small subset of all colorectal cancers. Their features are unique, and their treatment varies from that of colorectal adenocarcinoma. Appropriate identification is key in the management of these tumors.

Flat and depressed colorectal neoplasms
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2003An increasing body of literature is available showing the existence of flat and depressed colorectal neoplasms in Western countries. The appreciation that colorectal neoplasms may present as flat or depressed lesions has important implications, as the risk of adenocarcinoma in depressed lesions has been found to be markedly higher than in flat or ...

Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal neoplasms
Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 1994AbstractLaparoscopy is being used to assist in an increasing number and variety of bowel procedures. However, when being used for neoplastic disease concerns of margins and adequacy of mesenteric dissection must be addressed. We've performed 110 laparoscopic‐assisted bowel procedures, with 45 of these performed for neoplastic disease.

Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is primarily a disease of urban, industrialized societies. In the US, the lifetime risk of CRC is similar for men (4.4%) and women (4.1%). Recent data have suggested that the incidence rates of CRC may be decreasing gradually in some subgroups of the population but increasing in adults younger than 50 ...

Colorectal cancer is a very important cause of death and disability throughout the world. In the future, it may be possible to reduce the risk of this disease through such measures as dietary modification or use of aspirin or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, but this remains to be proved.

Origins and morphogenesis of colorectal neoplasms
APMIS, 1999Gastrointestinal stem cells are considered pivotal in colonic carcinogenesis. There is evidence to suggest that early microadenomas in the colon are polyclonal in origin. Adenomas, once initiated, enlarge by the process of crypt fission. It is also the main mechanism by which neoplastic clones spread through the colorectal epithelium. Both concepts are

Prevention and Chemoprevention of Colorectal Neoplasms
Digestive and Liver Disease, 2002Main purpose of the review is to analyse the impact of the current approaches for colorectal cancer prevention, including chemoprevention. Available evidence does not support the contention that a more appropriate diet can be of great help in the prevention of these neoplasms, either because the scientific evidence is poor and highly controversial, or ...

Prevalence of Colorectal Neoplasm Among Patients With Newly Diagnosed Coronary Artery Disease
JAMA - Journal of the American Medical Association, 2007 Context: Colorectal neoplasm and coronary artery disease (CAD) share similar risk factors, and their co-occurrence may be associated. Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of colorectal neoplasm in patients with CAD in a cross-sectional study and to ...

Screening for Colorectal Neoplasms
2009Evidence is mounting that colorectal adenocarcinoma can be prevented by detecting and removing adenomatous polyps, and that detecting early-stage cancers reduces mortality from the disease. Both polyps and early-stage cancers are usually asymptomatic; cancers that have grown large enough to cause symptoms have a much worse prognosis.
