Colorectal Cancer
Topic Overview
Is this topic for you?
This topic will tell you about the initial testing, diagnosis, and treatment of colorectal cancer. If you want to learn about colorectal cancer that has come back or has spread, see the topic Colorectal Cancer, Metastatic or Recurrent.
What is colorectal cancer?
Colorectal cancer happens when cells that are not normal grow in your colon or rectum . These cells grow together and form polyps. Over time, some polyps can turn into cancer.
This cancer is also called colon cancer or rectal cancer, depending on where the cancer is. It is the third most common cancer in the United States. And it occurs most often in people older than 50.
As with other cancers, treatment for colorectal cancer works best when the cancer is found early. Screening tests can detect or prevent this cancer, but only about half of people older than 50 are screened. According to the American Cancer Society, if everyone were tested, tens of thousands of lives could be saved each year.
What causes colorectal cancer?
Most cases begin as polyps , which are small growths inside the colon or rectum. Colon polyps are very common. Some polyps can turn into cancer. But doctors cannot tell ahead of time which polyps will turn into cancer. This is why people age 50 and older need regular tests to find out if they have any polyps and then have them removed. And some people who are younger than 50 need regular tests if their medical history puts them at increased risk for colorectal cancer.
What are the symptoms?
Colorectal cancer usually does not cause symptoms until after it has begun to spread. See your doctor if you have any of these symptoms:
- Pain in your belly
- Blood in your stool or very dark stools
- A change in your bowel habits, such as more frequent stools or a feeling that your bowels are not emptying completely
How is colorectal cancer diagnosed?
If your doctor thinks that you may have this cancer, you will need a test, called a colonoscopy (say "koh-luh-NAW-skuh-pee"), that lets the doctor see the inside of your entire colon and rectum. During this test, your doctor will remove polyps or take tissue samples from any areas that don't look normal. The tissue will be looked at under a microscope to see if it contains cancer.
Sometimes another test, such as a sigmoidoscopy (say "sig-moy-DAW-skuh-pee"), is used to diagnose colorectal cancer.
How is it treated?
Colorectal cancer is usually treated with surgery, chemotherapy , or radiation .
Finding out that you have cancer can change your life. You may feel like your world has turned upside down and you have lost all control. Talking with family, friends, or a counselor can really help. Ask your doctor about support groups. Or call the American Cancer Society (1-800-227-2345) or visit its website at www.cancer.org.
How can you screen for colorectal cancer?
Screening tests can find or prevent many cases of colon and rectal cancer. They look for a certain disease or condition before any symptoms appear. Experts recommend routine colon cancer testing for everyone age 50 and older who has a normal risk for colon cancer. Your doctor may recommend earlier or more frequent testing if you have a higher risk for colorectal cancer. Talk to your doctor about when you should be tested.
These are the most common screening tests:
- Stool tests that check for signs of cancer:
- Fecal occult blood test (FOBT)
- Fecal immunochemical test (FIT)
- Stool DNA test (sDNA)
- Sigmoidoscopy. A doctor puts a flexible viewing tube into your rectum and into the first part of your colon. This lets the doctor see the lower portion of the intestine, which is where most colon cancers grow. Doctors can remove polyps during this test also.
- Colonoscopy. A doctor puts a long, flexible viewing tube into your rectum and colon. The tube is usually linked to a video monitor similar to a TV screen. With this test, the doctor can see the entire large intestine.
- Computed tomographic colonography (CTC). This test is also called a virtual colonoscopy. A computer and X-rays make a detailed picture of the colon to help the doctor look for polyps.

The exact cause of colorectal cancer is not known. Most cases begin as small growths, or polyps, inside the colon or rectum.
Colon polyps are very common. If they are found early, usually through routine screening tests, they can be removed before they turn into cancer.
Colorectal cancer in its early stages usually doesn't cause any symptoms. Symptoms occur later, when the cancer may be more difficult to treat. The most common symptoms include:
- Pain in the belly.
- Blood in your stool or very dark stools.
- A change in your bowel habits (such as more frequent stools or a feeling that your bowels are not emptying completely).
- Constant tiredness (fatigue).
- In rare cases, unexplained weight loss.
Colon cancer may not cause symptoms you notice in the early stages. When there are symptoms, they may depend on where the cancer is in your colon.
- The cecum and ascending colon , the first and second parts of the colon, are on the right side of your abdomen. Cancer in this area may bleed, causing blood in the stool and symptoms of anemia , including fatigue and weakness. The amount of blood may be small and so well mixed with stool that your stool may look normal. Sometimes cancer in this area does not cause many symptoms.
- The transverse colon , the third part, goes across your body from right to left. Cancer here may cause abdominal cramps.
- The descending colon , the fourth part, and the S-shaped sigmoid colon , the fifth part, are on the left side of your abdomen and join the rectum. Cancer here may cause narrower stools and bright red blood in the stool. Sometimes this blood is mistakenly thought to come from hemorrhoids .
Having these symptoms does not mean you have cancer. A number of other medical problems could cause similar symptoms, including:
- Irritable bowel syndrome , a common digestive problem that causes periods of stomach pain, cramping or bloating, and diarrhea or constipation.
- Other growths ( polyps ) in the large intestine that are not cancer.
- Diverticulitis , a condition in which pouches form in the wall of the colon and become painful, swollen, or infected.
- Infections that cause diarrhea, such as salmonella .
- Inflammatory bowel disease , such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis , which cause swelling and sores in the intestines.
- Bleeding hemorrhoids.
- Ulcers of the rectum.
What Happens
Cancer is the growth of abnormal cells in the body. These extra cells grow together and form masses, called tumors. In colorectal cancer, these growths usually start as polyps in the large intestine (colon or rectum). Colon polyps are quite common. But if they are not detected and removed, the polyps may turn into cancer.
Cancers in the colon or rectum usually grow very slowly. It takes most of them years to become large enough to cause symptoms. If the cancer is allowed to grow, it eventually will invade and destroy nearby tissues and then spread farther. Colorectal cancer spreads first to nearby lymph nodes . From there it may spread to other parts of the body, usually the liver. It may also spread to the lungs, and less often, to other organs in the body.
The long-term outcome, or prognosis, for colorectal cancer depends on how much the cancer has grown and spread. Experts talk about prognosis in terms of "5-year survival rates." The 5-year survival rate means the percentage of people who are still alive 5 years or longer after their cancer was discovered. It is important to remember that these are only averages. Everyone's case is different. And these numbers do not necessarily show what will happen to you. The estimated 5-year survival rate for colorectal cancer is: 1
- 90% or more if cancer is found early and treated before it has spread. This means that 90 or more out of 100 people will still be alive in 5 years if the cancer is found early and treated before it has spread.
- 69% if the cancer has spread to nearby organs and lymph nodes. This means that 69 out of 100 people will still be alive in 5 years if the cancer has spread to nearby organs and lymph nodes.
- 12% if the cancer has spread to the liver, lungs, or bones. This means that 12 out of 100 people will still be alive in 5 years if the cancer has spread to the liver, lungs, or other organs in the body.
These numbers are taken from reports that were done at least 5 years ago, before newer treatments were available. So the actual chances of your survival are likely to be higher than these numbers.
What Increases Your Risk
A risk factor for colorectal cancer is something that increases your chance of getting this cancer. Having one or more of these risk factors can make it more likely that you will get colorectal cancer. But it doesn't mean that you will definitely get it. And many people who get colorectal cancer don't have any of these risk factors.
Risks you can't change
Your age
Everyone who is older than 50 has a risk of getting colorectal cancer. And the older you are, the greater the risk. Most cases of colorectal cancer are diagnosed in people older than 50. Most people who get colorectal cancer have no other risk factors besides being older than 50.
Your race and ethnicity
African Americans are at greater risk of getting colorectal cancer (and dying from it) than non-Hispanic whites. And non-Hispanic white people have a higher risk than other major racial or ethnic groups, such as Hispanics, Asians, and Pacific Islanders. 2
Ashkenazi Jews (Jewish people whose ancestors came from Eastern Europe) who have inherited certain genes are also at a higher risk for getting colorectal cancer. 3
Your family's medical history
You are more likely to get colorectal cancer if one of your parents, brothers, sisters, or children has had the disease. This is considered a strong family history. Your risk depends on how old your family member was when he or she was diagnosed and on how many members of your family have had the disease.
You have a very strong family history if all of the following are true:
- You have at least three relatives who have had colon cancer, endometrial cancer, or another HNPCC-related cancer, and at least one of the relatives is a parent, brother, or sister.
- Those relatives are spread over two generations in a row (for example, a grandparent and a parent).
- One of those relatives had cancer before age 50.
If you have a very strong family history of colorectal and related cancers, you may want to have genetic testing. Related cancers include ovarian cancer, stomach cancer, liver cancer, or cancer of the small bowel, among others. Genetic testing is done with a blood test that looks for changed genes (mutations).
The most common gene changes occur in two conditions: familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and Lynch syndrome, also called hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) . Many people with these changed genes will develop colorectal cancer if they are not carefully watched. Genetic testing can tell you whether you carry a changed, or mutated, gene that can cause FAP or HNPCC.
Your medical history
Your chances of getting colorectal cancer are higher if you have had:
- Colorectal cancer in the past.
- Another type of cancer, such as cancer of the ovary or cancer of the endometrium .
- Polyps removed from your colon, especially if you had large polyps or a large number of polyps.
- Ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease for more than 10 years.
- Radiation therapy in your abdomen or pelvis.
Lifestyle changes to reduce your risk
- Have a screening test for colorectal cancer. Talk to your doctor about when to start and what test would be best for you.
- Keep a healthy body mass index (BMI) .
- Be physically active with regular exercise.
- Eat more whole grains, fruits, vegetables, poultry, and fish.
- Drink less than 2 alcohol drinks a day. 2
- Quit smoking, if you smoke.
When To Call a Doctor
Call your doctor if you have any symptoms of colorectal cancer, such as:
- A change in bowel habits.
- Bleeding from your rectum, including bright red or dark blood in your stools or stools that look black.
- Constant or frequent diarrhea, constipation, or a feeling that your bowel doesn't empty completely.
- Stools that are narrow (may be as narrow as a pencil).
- Abdominal (belly) pain or problems with gas or bloating.
- Unexplained weight loss.
- Constant tiredness (fatigue).
Because colorectal cancer often does not cause any symptoms, talk with your doctor about screening tests. Screening helps doctors find a certain disease or condition before any symptoms appear. Some screening tests for colorectal cancer can find and remove small precancerous growths in the colon and rectum called adenomatous polyps . If these are found and removed early, they cannot turn into cancer.
Who to see
Health professionals who can evaluate your symptoms of colorectal cancer include:
- Family medicine doctors .
- General practitioners .
- Gastroenterologists .
- General surgeons and colorectal surgeons .
- Internists .
- Nurse practitioners .
- Physician assistants .
If your doctor thinks you may have colorectal cancer, he or she may advise you to see a general surgeon or a colorectal surgeon. Colorectal cancer is treated by surgeons, medical oncologists , and radiation oncologists .
To prepare for your appointment, see the topic Making the Most of Your Appointment.
Exams and Tests
If your doctor thinks you may have colorectal cancer, he or she will ask you questions about your medical history and give you a physical exam. Other tests may include:
- A colonoscopy, a test in which your doctor uses a lighted scope to view the inside of your entire colon. A colonoscopy may be done to look into symptoms such as unexplained bleeding from the rectum, constant diarrhea or constipation, blood in the stool, or pain in the lower abdomen. A colonoscopy is recommended when another screening test shows you may have colorectal cancer. 4
- A sigmoidoscopy, a test in which your doctor uses a lighted scope to view the lower part of your intestine. A sigmoidoscopy may be done to look into symptoms such as unexplained bleeding from the rectum, constant diarrhea or constipation, blood in the stool, or pain in the lower abdomen. Doctors can also remove polyps during this test.
- A barium enema, in which a whitish liquid with barium is inserted through your rectum into your intestine. The barium outlines the inside of the colon so that it can be seen on an X-ray.
- A biopsy , in which a sample of tissue is taken from the inside of your intestine and examined under a microscope. A doctor called a pathologist can look at the tissue sample and see if it contains cancer.
- A complete blood count, which is a blood test. It is used to look into symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, anemia, bruising, or weight loss.
For people who have an increased risk for colorectal cancer, regular colonoscopy is the recommended screening test. It allows your doctor to remove polyps (polypectomy) and take tissue samples at the same time.
When you are diagnosed with colorectal cancer, your doctor may order other tests to find out whether the cancer has spread. These tests include:
- A CT scan to see if the cancer has spread to your liver, lungs, or abdomen.
- A chest X-ray to see if the cancer has spread to your lungs.
- An MRI or PET scan to see if the cancer has spread into your chest or organs in the abdomen or pelvis.
- An ultrasound to find the cause of belly pain or increased belly girth or to see if the cancer has spread to your liver. An endoscopic ultrasound is used to see how far rectal cancer may have spread.
- A blood chemistry panel to see if the cancer has spread to your liver and bones.
- A carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) blood test to check the level of this tumor marker .
Early detection
Colorectal cancer has a much better chance of being successfully treated when it is found early. Most people who get colorectal cancer are older than 50 and have no other risk factors besides their age.
Routine screening can reduce deaths from colorectal cancer. Some screening tests find and remove polyps before they can turn into cancer. Other screening tests look for early signs of cancer, because that is when treatment works better. Screening methods include:
- Stool tests, such as the fecal occult blood test (FOBT), the fecal immunochemical test (FIT), and the stool DNA test (sDNA).
- Sigmoidoscopy.
- Colonoscopy.
- Computed tomographic colonography (CTC), also known as virtual colonoscopy.
Stool tests look for signs of cancer. If used as recommended, these tests may find cancer early, when treatment works better. Sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy are tests that find and remove polyps to stop them from turning into cancer. Virtual colonoscopy finds polyps. With stool tests and virtual colonoscopy, if there are abnormal findings, you will need to have a colonoscopy to remove any polyps.
Talk to your doctor about which test is right for you. People with a higher risk for colorectal cancer, such as African Americans and people with a strong family history of colon cancer, may need to begin routine testing before age 50 and have it more often.
If you have a very strong family history of colon cancer, you may want to talk to your doctor or a genetic counselor about having a blood test to look for changed genes. Genetic testing can tell you whether you carry a changed, or mutated, gene that can cause colon cancer. Having certain genes greatly increases your risk of colon cancer. But most cases of colon cancer are not caused by changed genes.
Treatment Overview
The first step in treating colorectal cancer is usually an operation to remove the tumor. Sometimes a simple operation can be done during a colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy to remove small polyps and a small amount of tissue surrounding them. But in most cases a major operation, in which the cancer and part of the colon or rectum around it are removed, is needed. If cancer has spread to another part of your body, such as the liver, you may need more far-reaching surgery.
After the cancer has been examined under a microscope, it will be staged. Staging is a way for your doctor to tell how far, if at all, your cancer has spread. It also helps your doctor decide what your treatment should be.
There are several different types of staging systems, so it's important to ask your doctor to explain carefully what stage your cancer is in and what that means.
Cancers that have not spread beyond the colon or rectum may require only surgery. If the cancer has spread, you may need radiation therapy , chemotherapy , or both.
Initial treatment
You and your doctor will work together to decide what your treatment should be. You will consider your own preferences and your general health, but the stage of your cancer is the most important tool for choosing your treatment.
Surgery is almost always used to remove colorectal cancer. Your doctor may use one of the following types of surgery:
- Polypectomy. When the cancer is still just in a polyp, it will be removed during colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy .
- Resection. If your cancer is larger, your doctor will remove the cancer and a small amount of healthy tissue. The healthy ends of the colon or rectum are then sewn back together. During this operation, your doctor will also remove some of your lymph nodes for testing.
- Resection and colostomy. Sometimes it isn't possible to rejoin the ends of the colon or rectum after the cancer is removed. Your doctor will do a colostomy and make an opening on the outside of your abdomen where waste can pass through into a colostomy bag. The colostomy may be temporary until your colon heals. Or it may be permanent if the entire lower colon or rectum was removed.
Sometimes it is possible to have laparoscopic surgery to remove the cancer. This is surgery where very small incisions are made in the belly. A tiny camera and special instruments are used to remove the cancer. For the best results, it is important to have an experienced surgeon. 5
Even after removing all the cancer that can be found with surgery, your doctor may say you need other treatment. This may be chemotherapy, radiation, or both (chemoradiation).
Chemotherapy uses medicines—given either as pills or through a needle—to destroy cancer cells throughout the body. Several medicines are often used together. Research studies continue to look for the best combinations of medicines. Your doctor will recommend treatment based on the type and stage of cancer that you have.
Radiation therapy, which uses X-rays to destroy cancer cells, is standard treatment for some types of cancer in the rectum. Radiation therapy is often combined with surgery or chemotherapy. Radiation may be given from a machine outside the body that targets the cancer (external radiation). Or it may be given inside the body, with radiation sealed in seeds or wires (internal radiation).
Compared to surgery alone, radiation therapy given before surgery for rectal cancer may reduce the risk that the cancer will return and may help you live longer. 6
Side effects of treatment
Surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation can have serious side effects. But your medical team will help you manage the side effects of your treatment. This may include medicines for pain following surgery or medicines to control nausea and vomiting if you have chemotherapy.
Talk with your doctor and medical team about your side effects. Some side effects, such as pain or tingling in your hands or feet that gets worse (peripheral neuropathy), may be a sign that your medicines need to be changed.
For tips on how to manage side effects at home, see the Home Treatment section of this topic.
Additional information about colon and rectal cancer is provided by the National Cancer Institute at www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/types/colon-and-rectal.
Ongoing treatment
After your treatment, you will need regular checkups by a family doctor, general practitioner, medical oncologist, radiation oncologist, or surgeon, depending on your case. During your follow-up visits you may have one or more of these tests:
- Physical exams. How often you have these depends on your general health and the type of colorectal cancer you have. In general, you will see your doctor several times a year for 3 to 5 years and then return to once-a-year checkups.
- Colonoscopy, to inspect the inner surface of your colon and rectum for new problems
- Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and other blood tests, to check the success of your treatment and find out whether the cancer has returned
- CT scan or MRI, to see if the cancer has spread to other organs
Treatment if the condition gets worse
Colorectal cancer comes back after surgery in about half of people who have surgery to remove the cancer. 6 The cancer may be more likely to come back after surgery if it was not discovered in an early stage. Cancer that has spread or comes back is harder to treat, but sometimes treatments are successful. For more information, see the topic Colorectal Cancer, Metastatic and Recurrent.
What to think about
After you have had colorectal cancer, your chances of having it again go up. It's important to continue to see your doctor and be tested regularly to help find any returning cancer or new polyps early.
Clinical trials are designed to find better ways to treat people with cancer and are based on the most current information. Some people who meet the criteria for participation choose to enroll in such clinical trials.
Screening for colorectal cancer
Some tests can prevent colorectal cancer. Screening tests look for a certain disease or condition before any symptoms appear. Experts recommend routine colon cancer testing for everyone age 50 and older who has a normal risk for colon cancer. Your doctor may recommend earlier or more frequent testing if you have a higher risk for colon cancer. Talk to your doctor about when you should be tested.
Fewer than half of people who are older than 50 are screened for colorectal cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, if everyone were tested, tens of thousands of lives could be saved each year.
The following guidelines are for people who do not have an increased risk for colorectal cancer.
Test | Frequency | |
Stool test,* such as the fecal occult blood test (FOBT), fecal immunochemical test (FIT), or stool DNA test (sDNA) |
Every year for the FOBT and FIT Every 5 years for sDNA |
or |
Every 5 years | ||
or |
Every 10 years | ||
or |
Computed tomographic colonography (CTC), also called a virtual colonoscopy |
Every 5 years |
*Others recommend combining a stool test with a sigmoidoscopy. |
Recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force
- People ages 50 to 75 should have a fecal occult blood test (FOBT), sigmoidoscopy, or colonoscopy.
- People who have a sigmoidoscopy every 5 years should also have a stool test (FOBT) at regular intervals.
- Some people older than 75 may benefit from screening tests. Others may not. Talk to your doctor about continuing testing for colon cancer after age 75.
Recommendations from other groups
- The American Cancer Society (ACS), the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA), and the American College of Gastroenterologists (ACG) recommend routine testing for people age 50 and older who have a normal risk for colon cancer. Your doctor may recommend earlier or more frequent testing if you have a higher risk for colon cancer. Talk to your doctor about when you should be tested.
For more information, see:
Your lifestyle
Here are other things you can do to help prevent colorectal cancer:
- Watch your weight. Being very overweight may increase your risk. And carrying extra fat around the waist seems to be more of a risk than carrying extra fat in the hips or thighs.
- Eat well. Healthy eating includes a variety of foods. Eat more whole grains, fruits, vegetables, poultry, and fish. And eat less red meat, refined grains, and sweets.
- Limit drinking. Drink less than 2 alcohol drinks a day. People who drink 2 or more alcohol drinks a day have a slightly higher risk for colorectal cancer. 2
- Get active. Keep up a physically active lifestyle. Being fit leads to an improved sense of well-being, improved appearance, and increased stamina and strength.
- Quit smoking. If you smoke cigarettes, quit smoking to reduce your risk.
What to think about
If you have a very strong family history of colon cancer, you may want to talk to your doctor or a genetic counselor about having a blood test to look for changed genes. Genetic testing can tell you whether you carry a changed, or mutated, gene that can cause colon cancer. Having certain genes greatly increases your risk of colon cancer.
You have a very strong family history if each of the following is true:
- You have at least three relatives who have had colon cancer, and at least one of them is a parent, brother, or sister.
- Those relatives are spread over two generations in a row (for example, a parent and a grandparent).
- One of those relatives had cancer before age 50.
Home Treatment
Managing side effects
You can do things at home to help manage the side effects of colorectal cancer or its treatment. Be sure to follow your doctor's advice on any drugs you are taking. Healthy habits such as eating a balanced diet and getting enough sleep and exercise may help control your symptoms.
- Home treatment for nausea or vomiting includes watching for and treating early signs of dehydration , such as a dry mouth, sticky saliva, having smaller than usual amounts of urine, or having urine that is dark yellow. Your doctor may also prescribe medicines to help control nausea and vomiting.
- Home treatment for diarrhea includes resting your stomach by not eating for several hours or until you feel better and watching for signs of dehydration. Check with your doctor before using any drugs for your diarrhea.
- Home treatment for constipation includes gentle exercise, drinking plenty of fluids, and eating lots of fruits, vegetables, and foods that contain fiber. Check with your doctor before using a laxative.
- Home treatment for fatigue includes getting extra rest while you are having chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Let your symptoms be your guide. You may be able to stay with your usual routine and just get some extra sleep. Fatigue is often worse at the end of treatment or just after treatment is completed.
- Home treatment for sleep problems includes going to bed at the same time every night, exercising during the day, and avoiding caffeine late in the day.
- Home treatment for pain can range from hot packs or cold packs to relaxation or aromatherapy and can improve your physical and mental well-being. Not all forms of cancer and cancer treatment cause pain. Talk to your doctor before using any home treatment for pain.
Home treatment for mouth sores can reduce your
- Drink cold liquids, such as water or iced tea, or eat flavored ice treats or frozen juices.
- Eat foods that are easy to swallow, such as gelatin, ice cream, or custard.
- Drink from a straw.
- Rinse your mouth several times a day with a warm saltwater rinse. Mix 1 tsp (5 g) of salt with 8 fl oz (0.2 L) of warm water.
Managing stress
Learning that you have colorectal cancer and being treated for it can be very stressful. There are steps you can take to reduce your stress. You may want to talk with family or friends. Some people find that spending time alone is what they need.
Consider meeting with a counselor or joining a support group of others who have colorectal cancer. Your doctor may also be able to help you find other sources of support and information. Learning relaxation techniques, such as yoga or visualization exercises, may also help you reduce your stress.
Your feelings about your body may change after treatment. Dealing with your body image may involve talking openly with your partner about your worries and discussing your feelings with a doctor.
Having cancer can change your life in many ways. For help with managing these changes, see the topic Getting Support When You Have Cancer.
For more information about learning how to live with cancer, read "Taking Time: Support for People With Cancer" from the National Cancer Institute. This booklet is available online at www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/takingtime.
Chemotherapy is the use of medicines to control the cancer's growth or relieve symptoms. Often the medicines are given through a needle in your vein, and your blood vessels carry the medicines through your body. Sometimes the medicines are available as pills you can swallow. Sometimes they are given as a shot, or injection.
Several medicines are used to treat colorectal cancer. There are also several medicines available for treating side effects.
Medicine choices
A combination of drugs often works better than a single drug in treating colorectal cancer. The most commonly used drugs are:
- Fluorouracil (5-FU) combined with leucovorin.
- Oxaliplatin.
- Capecitabine.
- Irinotecan.
Hair loss, a side effect common with some types of chemotherapy, is usually not a side effect of these drugs.
Treating the side effects
Your doctor may prescribe medicines that can help relieve side effects of chemotherapy. These side effects can include mouth sores, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Your doctor may prescribe medicines to control nausea and vomiting. These drugs may include:
- Serotonin antagonists, such as dolasetron (Anzemet), granisetron (Kytril), or ondansetron (Zofran). These drugs more effectively prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy when they are combined with corticosteroids, such as dexamethasone.
- Aprepitant (Emend), which is used in combination with dexamethasone and ondansetron as part of a 3-day program.
- Antiemetics, such as promethazine and prochlorperazine.
- Metoclopramide (Reglan).
There also are things you can do at home to manage side effects. See Home Treatment for more information.
What to think about
Chemotherapy and radiation may be combined to treat some types of colorectal cancer. Radiation or chemotherapy given before or after surgery can destroy microscopic areas of cancer to increase the chances of a cure.
Surgery to remove cancer is almost always the main treatment for colorectal cancer. The type of surgery depends on the size and location of your cancer.
Side effects are common after surgery. You may be able to reduce the severity of your side effects at home. See Home Treatment for more information.
Surgery choices
- Polypectomy. When colorectal cancer is discovered in its very early stages, it can be removed during a sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy . The surgeon cuts out not just the polyp, but also a small amount of tissue around it. The surgeon does not need to cut into the abdomen.
Bowel resection. This operation
involves cutting out the cancer as well as the sections of the colon or rectum
that are next to it. Then the two healthy ends of the colon or rectum are sewn
back together. The surgery can be done in two ways:
- Open resection. The surgeon makes a long incision in the abdomen, completes the bowel resection, and closes the incision.
- Laparoscopic surgery. This is done with several small incisions in the belly for a tiny camera and special instruments. But laparoscopic surgery cannot always be done, such as when the cancer has spread to areas outside the colon.
Your doctor may suggest radiation therapy or chemotherapy if he or she thinks the cancer may come back (recur). If the cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes, you may need chemotherapy after your surgery. Or if your surgery shows that the cancer has spread outside your colon or rectum, you may need radiation therapy.
What to think about
Polypectomy or local excision is used when the cancer has been caught in its early stages. Bowel resection is used when the cancer is larger. Sometimes after this major operation, the two ends of the colon or rectum cannot be sewn back together. When this happens, a colostomy is performed. Most people do not need a colostomy.
Other Treatment
Radiation therapy
Radiation therapy uses X-rays to destroy colorectal cancer cells and shrink tumors. It is often used to treat rectal cancer, usually combined with surgery. It is used less often to treat colon cancer. It may also be combined with chemotherapy .
Radiation may be given:
- Externally, using a machine outside the body that points a beam of radiation at the tumor.
- Internally, by placing tiny radioactive "seeds" next to or into the cancer.
Compared to surgery alone, radiation given before surgery may reduce the risk that rectal cancer will return and may help you live longer. 6
Complementary therapies
People sometimes use complementary therapies along with medical treatment to help relieve symptoms and side effects of cancer treatments. Some of the complementary therapies that may be helpful include:
- Acupuncture to relieve pain.
- Meditation or yoga to relieve stress.
- Massage and biofeedback to reduce pain and ease tension.
- Breathing exercises for relaxation.
Mind-body treatments like the ones listed above may help you feel better. They can make it easier to cope with cancer treatments. They also may reduce chronic low back pain, joint pain, headaches, and pain from treatments.
Before you try a complementary therapy, talk to your doctor about the possible value and potential side effects. Let your doctor know if you are already using any such therapies. Complementary therapies are not meant to take the place of standard medical treatment, but they may improve your quality of life and help you deal with the stress and side effects of cancer treatment.
Clinical trials
You may be interested in taking part in research studies called clinical trials. Clinical trials are based on the most up-to-date information and are designed to find better ways to treat people who have cancer. People who do not want standard treatments or are not cured by standard treatments may want to take part in clinical trials. These are ongoing in most parts of the United States and in some other countries around the world for all stages of colorectal cancer.

A task force charged with identifying winning political strategies and broadening the GOP's appeal with minority voters will deliver its recommendations in March to the Republican National Committee on what steps the party needs to take going forward.
"We have real challenges and we did get whipped," in the 2012 election, Mississippi National Committeeman Henry Barbour said at the RNC's Winter Meeting in Charlotte. "That is not something we take lightly."
Barbour is one of five Republicans heading up the "Growth and Opportunity Project," a panel created last month by RNC Chairman Reince Priebus following a presidential election in which Democrats held onto the White House, added to their majority in the Senate and gained ground in the House. The GOP's performance with minorities was particularly disturbing to party leaders, especially Asian and Hispanic voters.
There was somber acknowledgment from the five member task force that the GOP needs to do a much better job cultivating minority voters and selling Republican ideals and policies in those communities.
"I think you will see a very aggressive effort on the part of this party" to go into non-traditional Republican communities to promote the GOP message, said Sally Bradshaw, a well respected Republican strategist from Florida.
Barbour described the report as a "campaign plan" and that some parts of it would be made public, while other portions would remain confidential.
"It will give direction of where we go," Barbour said.
The task force also met with RNC members to discuss the future of the party, which Priebus described in an interview with CNN as his top priority as chairman. The task force will also make suggestions on what role the RNC should play in the 2016 election including regulating the presidential primary debates as well as making suggestions on general messaging and digital strategy.
On Friday, Priebus will ask the RNC to elect him for another two year term, a formality given that he has no real opposition.

American Art Still Life - Pears, Peaches & Grapes Made in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, North and Central America1824 James Peale, American, 1749 - 1831 Oil on canvas Currently not on view 2007-65-8 Gift of the McNeil Americana Collection, 2007 |
LabelWhen James Peale's eyesight declined around 1810, he abandoned miniature painting for larger oil compositions such as this still life. In this work, a lavish display of peaches, pears, and grapes spill out of a Chinese export porcelain basket and a bowl. The attention to detail and dramatic use of shadows are reminiscent of seventeenth-century Dutch still life painting. The fruit is portrayed at the height of its ripeness, though the pears are beginning to show spots of age. Completed when Peale was seventy-four, this image may represent the artist's heightened awareness of the transience of time near the end of his life. |

Earphones and Earbuds
Earbuds, buds, earphones...whatever you call them, in-ear headphones have become the standard for active listening since the invention of the portable mp3 player. At Skullcandy, we separate them into two categories: buds, which sit just inside the ear and allow some ambient noise to filter in, and in-ears, which fit deep into the ear canal and isolate the listener from the outside world.

Why you might know him: Newton is a serial entrepreneur, a maker and a hacker. He's just opened a sixth TechShop, this one in Round Rock, Texas, so more tinkerers, artists, entrepreneurs and lovers of all things handmade can have access to the tools to build whatever they can dream up.
Why he matters: Newton is opening up a world of innovation by giving people the tools, the workspace and the confidence to make things they've always dreamed of making. He's creating hubs for invention and creativity where people can come to inspire and be inspired.
Quotable Newton: "This is kind of innovation as recreation," he says. "You just do it because it's fun."
TechShop by the numbers: There are six TechShops open right now: in Menlo Park, CA, San Francisco, CA, San Jose, CA, Raleigh-Durham, NC, Detroit, MI, and now Round Rock, Texas, near Austin. Three more are planned for Brooklyn, NY, Pittsburgh, PA and greater Washington, D.C. There are currently about 5,000 TechShop members nationwide.
In his own words: "Everybody has creative abilities but people just don't express them. I mean, I see people come in here that are afraid to try anything. We give them some classes and some encouragement. And they have some success with their projects. And you see them just change. You see them light up. You see them say, 'Wow, I really can do this.' This is stunning. They're stunned."
Something you might not know about Jim: He worked as a science advisor on the popular Discovery Channel show "MythBusters." He's taught robotics and is a former Battle Bots competitor.
What they did on summer vacation: The Newtons (Jim, his wife Barbara and their three children) took a 60-day long car trip across America to visit iconic landmarks.
Surprising Fact: They are still speaking to one another.
Newton's Dream? To open a TechShop in every major city in the country. That way he'll have access to a world-class workshop wherever he goes.

The Hugh L. Carey Center for Dispute Resolution and the Dispute Resolution Society are pleased to host the:
Fourth Annual Securities Dispute Resolution Triathlon
The Securities Dispute Resolution Triathlon is a joint initiative of theCarey Center and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). For two days, student teams from law schools around the country meet to test their advocacy skills in the negotiation, mediation and arbitration of a securities dispute.
The Triathlon is not a competition of physical endurance, but of dispute resolution competence. Students play the roles of attorneys and clients, with some teams in the role of investor and others in the role of broker-dealer. Members of FINRA's roster of experienced neutrals serve as mediators, arbitrators and judges, critiquing the student teams and offering the students an invaluable real-life experience. By challenging students to negotiate, mediate, and arbitrate in a single competition, this one-of-a-kind event gives students an opportunity to hone their advocacy skills in a realistic and comprehensive securities dispute experience.Dates Saturday, October 13, 2012 Sunday, October 14, 2012
Time 8 a.m. (both days)
Location St. John's Manhattan Campus 101 Murray Street New York, N.Y. 10007More Information Jean Nolan Center email@example.com (718) 990-1824

The Republican National Committee chairman continued to downplay debate expectations for the GOP ticket Sunday, this time setting the stage for the upcoming showdown between Vice President Joe Biden and GOP vice-presidential nominee Paul Ryan.
"I think people realize that Joe Biden is a gifted orator. He's very good at rhetoric. And I think he's very relatable," Priebus said on CNN's "State of the Union."
While Biden is known to make gaffes on the campaign trail, the vice president -- who was a U.S. senator for 36 years - certainly does not lack experience on the debate stage, Priebus said.
"He knows his stuff," the chairman added.
Ryan, however, will do a "great job," Priebus said, pointing to the House budget committee chairman's passion for numbers and commitment to "understanding the problems of this economy." In fact, a recent CNN/ORC International Poll found that 55% of likely voters thought Ryan will fare better in the debate, while 39% said Biden will win.
"I think they're two different people, and I think it's going to be a great night," Priebus told CNN Chief Political Correspondent Candy Crowley, who will moderate the second presidential debate on October 16.
Ryan and Biden face off Thursday at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky.
And while the unemployment rate ticked below 8% for the first time since President Barack Obama took office, Priebus maintained Sunday the economy was still getting "clobbered."
"The fact of the matter is the president and Joe Biden are getting clobbered on the policies that they put in place," Priebus said. "They promised we'd be a heck of a lot better off than we are today. We're nowhere close."
Friday's jobs report showed unemployment unexpectedly fell to 7.8% in September, down from 8.1%, while a separate survey showed 114,000 jobs were added to the economy that same month.
The last time the unemployment rate was that low was in January 2009, the month Obama was inaugurated.
But Republicans argued the new number was nothing to celebrate, with some saying it indicated more Americans were leaving the job force - while others simply said it's too little, too late.
"If you are getting blown out in a football game but are scoring field goals once a quarter, you can't point to the three points every quarter and say at least we're scoring some points," Priebus said. "We're still getting clobbered."

This well-illustrated biographical study is the first ever of Thomas W. Sweeny who, with his widowed mother, brother and sister, emigrated to Brooklyn, New York, in 1832 when Tom was twelve years old. Until the outbreak of the US war with Mexico, he was occupied with schooling and then work in the printing trade. Setting off for Mexico in 1847 as a Lieutenant in a New York volunteer regiment, however, would serve to define his life from then on. He lost an arm in the battle of Churubusco, but was permitted to serve as an officer in the regular army after the war. After service in California and the southwest desert, he was an outstanding officer in the Civil War during which he rose to the rank of General. All along, however, he had remained devoted to the cause of Irish nationalism, and at the close of the Civil War politicked among Irish nationalist circles (the Fenian Brotherhood) in the US for an American Irish invasion of Canada as the most direct and viable action to free Ireland. Sweeny's plan was adopted by the Fenians and, under his leadership, strikes into Canada were undertaken in 1866. The book considers at length the Fenian movement of the 1860s, its relationship to Irish nationalism in Ireland and the historical context in which Sweeny's Canadian invasion plan was formed and carried out. Also examined is the shaping of the historical record of the event. Highly literate, colourful, dashing and charming, Sweeny was a representative nineteenth century Irish American. He was also a devoted husband and father as is evident in his letters extensively cited in this illuminating biography.

An affectionate look at two very different lives lived in tandem but intertwined by country house life on the Ards Peninsula in County Down. Castle Ward (now held by The National Trust) and Ballywhite House stood on opposite sides of Strangford Lough but their owners and those who lived on the estates found that their idyllic lives were changed for ever by the advent of the Second World War. This remarkable biography of Colonel William Brownlow, 'The Major', and Agnes White chronicles two very different lives. One was well known in Northern Ireland society, becoming Lord Lieutenant for County Down - a World War II veteran who campaigned for local issues and championed horse-racing and country sports. The other life was lived more quietly behind the scenes as a working mother and wife, chorister and talented amateur artist, but both were the faces of working lives well spent. All the more fascinating for being true..

This is the story of the brave Arctic explorers who died in their attempts to seek the North-West Passage and North Pole during the years 1845-1877. Among them was Jim Hand from Bray, Co. Wicklow. Although low in rank, Jim was unique for two reasons. Firstly, in the year 1876, he and a small band of shipmates stood closer to the North Pole than any explorers had ever done. Secondly, his name is stamped in history for evermore, as Hand Bay, located on the most north-westerly point of Greenland was named in his memory. In Buried in the Arctic Ice, Cyril Dunne combines Jim Hand's personal journey with an intricately researched account of life in the Arctic, that is in turns terrifying and inspiring. A resident of Bray, Co. Wicklow, Cyril Dunne is the great grandnephew of Jim Hand.

If you happen to harbour a vague romantic notion of some day opening your own second-hand bookshop where the artistic intelligentsia would congregate to discuss highbrow matters and engage in witty badinage, then perhaps you would do well to read "What's the best you can do?" first. It may not necessarily put you off the idea altogether, but it will certainly provide you with a sharp reality check. The book is an autobiographical account of a second-hand bookshop owner in Northern Ireland during the 1980s and 90s and is a combination of straight prose mixed with numerous anecdotes of a mainly humorous, but sometimes rather poignantly sad nature. Although set against the backdrop of 'The Troubles', it shows how life generally went on pretty much as normal in those times, and that the experience of the second-hand bookseller is essentially universal, irrespective of circumstances or location. These recollections provide an insight into the world of used bookselling whilst simultaneously entertaining with descriptions of the often inexplicable behaviour of various characters who came through the door. The rude, the mean, and the downright stupid all make an appearance, and the eccentric is never too far away either. Bizarre situations, silly questions, and the author's reaction to them, seriously threaten to have you chuckle out loud at times. A 'must' for book lovers.
