Malignant tumor can develop in any part of the digestive tract. At present, intestinal cancer is the most common disease.
A is a tumor of a tumor that is capable of rapid growth, spreading with the flow of lymph or blood to distant organs, and also sprouting into surrounding tissues .
As a rule, the risk of developing bowel cancer appears in people after 40 years of age. While lung and stomach cancer is less common recently, cases of colon and rectum cancer are being diagnosed more and more often.
Many experts believe that this process of increasing the disease is associated with the aging of the population.
Despite the fact that the methods of treatment of bowel cancer are being improved every year, the overall picture has not changed yet. The most important mistake of many people is their untimely visit to the doctor. Early detection of bowel cancer is a successful pledge of the treatment of oncological disease .
If we talk about the causes of its occurrence and development, then to date, the exact cause is not established. Today, many experts are confident that there is a definite relationship between polyps and the onset of a malignant tumor.
Polyps are small benign tumors of the colonic mucosa. They can be formed anywhere in the body, in which there is a mucous membrane. P finding them in the intestines contributes to the defeat of the large intestine .
So, there are polyps on the leg and sessile. The latter most often degenerate into malignant ones. That is, when polyps appear, they should be removed immediately, as they can cause this cancer.
Intestinal cancer can be cured only with surgical intervention. The surgeon will remove the tumor and all the lymph nodes adjacent to it, in order to prevent the spread of the disease.
In some cases, for the destruction of the remaining cancer cells, after the surgical operation, a course of radiation or chemotherapy is needed.
But, as it were not there, intestinal cancer is not a death sentence. Thanks to modern methods of treatment, you can permanently get rid of the disease, but only if it is diagnosed in the first stages.
