It is considered as a disease of Western-world lifestyle. Grossly, most colorectal carcinomas are either polypoid or of the ulcerative-infiltrating type. Adenocarcinoma is the most common carcinoma in the colon and rectum. Colorectal adenocarcinoma can be divided in three grades: Grade I (low grade or well-differentiated), grade II (average grade or moderately differentiated) and grade III (poorly differentiated). The following histopathologic features have been shown to be prognostic indicators in multivariate analysis: microacinar versus macroacinar growth pattern, endocrine cells detected by chromogranin immunohistochemistry, Crohn's-like reaction and tumor budding. The standard therapy for colorectal carcinoma is surgical resection. The 5-year crude survival rate after curative resection for colorectal carcinomas ranges between 40% and 60% in most large series (Sternberg's Diagnostic Surgical Pathology, 3rd ed., 1999).

- 450. Cancer of Rectum
- [A malignant tumor arising from the epithelium of the rectal mucosa. Most rectal carcinomas are adenocarcinomas; squamous cell carcinomas of the rectum are also seen. Prognosis depends on tumor stage (depth of wall invasion, lymph node involvement, presence of distal metastases). — 2004 ( NCI )] (UMLS (NCI) C0007113) =Neoplastic Process ;
| - 500. Cancer Susceptibility Gene
- [Mutated forms of genes which encode proteins that are essential for the control and maintenance of normal cellular processes. Inherited or somatic mutations in the wild-type form of these genes alters control of their expression, resulting in a change in control of the cell cycle. Individuals who harbor cancer-predisposing genes require fewer somatic mutations for transformation of a particular cell, thereby predisposing them to the development of cancer.
