Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in the structure of cancer morbidity and is the fourth most frequent cause of death from malignant neoplasms. The World Health Organization predicts an increase in the number of newly diagnosed cases of CRC by 77% and deaths from this disease by 80% by 2030. In this review, modern standards for the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) are analyzed. Based on the literature analysis data, the surgical operation continues to be the main method of treatment. At the moment, there are different views on the volume of lymphadenectomy in the CRC and the choice of combined treatment. The question of pelvic lymphadenectomy remains the most controversial.
