Colon cancer
Colon cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the colon, which is part of the large intestine. It usually begins as a noncancerous growth called a polyp, which can then become cancerous over time.
Some of the common symptoms of colon cancer include changes in bowel habits, such as diarrhea or constipation, rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, and unexplained weight loss. However, in some cases, there may be no symptoms at all.
The risk factors for colon cancer include age (it is more common in people over 50), a family history of colon cancer, a personal history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a sedentary lifestyle, a diet high in red meat and processed foods, and smoking.
Screening for colon cancer is important, as it can help detect the cancer at an early stage when it is more treatable. Screening can include tests such as a colonoscopy, a fecal occult blood test (FOBT), or a stool DNA test.
Diagnosis of colon cancer
Colon cancer can be diagnosed through several tests and procedures, including:
1. Colonoscopy: This is a procedure that uses a long, flexible tube with a camera on the end to examine the inside of the colon and rectum. During the procedure, the doctor can also remove any polyps or abnormal tissue for further testing.
2. Fecal occult blood test (FOBT): This test checks for blood in the stool, which can be a sign of colon cancer. The test requires collecting a small sample of stool and sending it to a laboratory for analysis.
3. Stool DNA test: This test looks for DNA changes in the stool that may indicate the presence of colon cancer.
4. CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy): This is a type of CT scan that produces detailed images of the colon and rectum.
Treatment of colon cancer
Treatment for colon cancer typically involves surgery to remove the cancerous part of the colon, along with any nearby lymph nodes. Other treatments may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or targeted therapy. The specific treatment plan will depend on the stage of the cancer and other individual factors.
Costs for the treatment of colon cancer in Germany
Treatment for colon cancer may involve surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, or a combination of these approaches. The cost of surgery can range from €25.000-€30.000, depending on the complexity of the procedure and the length of the hospital stay.
