Analyzing the causes of colorectal cancer

In recent years, colorectal cancer has become one of the major diseases that endanger people's health. As the disease progresses, a series of symptoms and signs may appear. Since the cause of colorectal cancer is unknown, most patients only pay attention to it in the late stage. Therefore, we should understand the causes of colorectal cancer:

1. Genetic factors There are reports of "familial colorectal cancer" both at home and abroad. The number of blood relatives of colorectal cancer patients who died of the disease is significantly higher than that of the general population. Some colorectal adenomas, such as multiple familial adenomatosis, are autosomal dominant genetic diseases with a family prevalence rate of up to 50%. If not treated, there is a possibility of colorectal cancer after the age of 10. Recently, some scholars have studied the relationship between tumor suppressor genes and colorectal cancer and found that the susceptibility and pathogenesis of colorectal cancer are both related to genetic factors.

2. Environmental factors Studies have shown that among various environmental factors, diet is the most important, and the incidence of colorectal cancer is positively correlated with the high fat consumption in food. In addition, it may also be related to the lack of trace elements and changes in living habits.

3. Colon adenoma According to the research of autopsy materials from various places, the incidence of colon adenoma is quite consistent with that of colon cancer. According to statistics, the incidence of colon cancer in patients with one adenoma is 5 times higher than that in patients without adenoma, and the incidence of colorectal cancer in patients with multiple adenomas is 1 times higher than that in patients with a single adenoma.

The prevalence of intestinal cancer is positively correlated with the prevalence of schistosomiasis. It is generally believed that due to schistosomiasis, inflammatory changes in the intestines may lead to cancer in some cases. Other chronic inflammations of the intestines may also lead to cancer, such as ulcerative colitis, which has a 3% to 5% chance of cancer.

The above is some knowledge about the causes of colorectal cancer that we have prepared for you today. We hope it will be helpful to you. If you have any symptoms of disease, you should go to a regular hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease and causing serious consequences.
