Abstract
Large bowel cancer is not common but is showing increased frequency in the northern part of the Sudan. It is relatively uncommon among southerners, which may be due to the socio-economic factors prevailing in the Sudan. The disease affected our population at a younger age than has been generally reported in the literature, and the lesions in nearly 30 per cent were of the mucoid and undifferentiated types. The incidence in young adults is difficult to explain in the absence of precancerous lesions, and there is not enough evidence to incriminate parasitic infestation.
