Colorectal Cancer: Evidence for Distinct Genetic Categories Based on Proximal or Distal Tumor Location

15 Nov 1990

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To examine studies of normal colon and colorectal cancer for evidence that the location of the primary tumor proximal or distal to the splenic flexure of the colon may determine distinct genetic categories of this disease. DATA IDENTIFICATION: Studies were identified through a manual search of journals, through MEDLINE, and through review of bibliographies in identified articles. STUDY SELECTION:...
