Description
Cancer of the colon. Endoscope view showing cancer (centre) of the ascending colon (part of the large intestine). The tumour is an adenocarcinoma, a type of colorectal cancer arising from glandular epithelial tissue. Adenocarcinoma accounts for 90-95 per cent of all colorectal cancers. Certain dietary habits, such as a diet high in fat, appear to be significant risk factors.
