Colorectal Cancer

Colorectal cancer treatment in Chennai

VS Hospitals offers the best colorectal cancer treatment in Chennai. With advanced therapies, most colorectal cancers are diagnosed at an early stage and treated.

  • Colorectal cancer is also known as colon cancer or rectal cancer because it begins in the large intestine (colon or rectum) which is the final part of the digestive tract.
  • Colona and rectum are the hollow tube which measures 5 – 6 feet in length running from the small intestine to the anus. The end point of the colon is the rectum.
  • At the base of the rectum are the sphincter muscles which helps in preventing the rectum from emptying out accidentally. 
  • The initial stage of this cancer begins in the inside of the colon called the polyps. It is usually small and noncancerous(benigns). Overtime these tiny polyps become colon cancers.
  • Many screening tests and advanced treatments can significantly improve best outcomes and survival rates are also increased if treated initially.
