Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is more prevalent in south-central Asian countries, particularly the Afghan population. Screening for CRC in the Afghan population has always been challenging, primarily due to the tribal and social cultures, lack of facilities, and lack of education. The United States (US) will soon face a significantly massive influx of Afghan refugees. It becomes imperative to initiate and implement effective measures regarding CRC screening in these refugee populations. The current review article aims to identify the most likely challenges faced for CRC screening in this Afghan refugee population in the US and address the possible measures to overcome these challenges.
