Causes Return to top
According to the American cancer Society, colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in the United States. (However, in almost all cases, early diagnosis can lead to a complete cure.)
There is no single cause for colon cancer. Nearly all colon cancers begin as benign polyps, which slowly develop into cancer.
You have a higher risk for colon cancer if you have:
* Colorectal polyps
* Cancer elsewhere in the body
* A family history of colon cancer
* Ulcerative colitis
* Crohn’s disease
* Personal history of breast cancer
