Abstract:
:The tumor registry of a community hospital has been reviewed, and 60 patients with untreated colon and rectal cancer have been identified. Thirty-four patients were black and 26 patients were white. Sixty-five percent of black patients had specified colonic lesions primarily distributed in the right colon and proximal to the splenic flexure. Sixty-three percent of white patients had specified lesions localized to the sigmoid colon. The patients had disease in local, regional, and disseminated stages, and lethality was associated with all stages. Forty-eight percent of patients expired in less than 30 days after presenting to the hospital, and two-thirds expired between 1 and 2 months of presentation. Only two patients survived more than 1 year. These data suggest that untreated colorectal cancer will be nearly uniformly fatal early in all patients who go untreated.

杂志文章abstract::Leiomyosarcoma of the colon is a rare neoplasm. It is widely known that primary malignant lesions may present either simultaneously (synchronous tumor) or at different times (metachronous tumor). The incidence of metachronous colonic mucosal carcinoma is generally considered to range from 3 to 5%. Metachronous leiomyo...
