Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this review is to study the literature concerning normal colon and colorectal cancer for evidencing that the location of the primary proximal or distal tumor may determine two categories of carcinogenesis. The proximal or distal normal colon can be considered as two different organs. Their embryologic origins are different, the splenic flexure starts the distal segment. Antigenic pattern as well as...
