Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most relevant diseases worldwide because of its incidence, prevalence and mortalitye. It is the third most common tumor in men, after lung and prostate cancer, and the second most common tumor in women, after breast cancer. A recent systematic analysis showed global data referring to age-standardized incidence rates for CRC, which increased by 9.5% from 1990 to 2017, whereas mortality rates decreased by 13.5%. This might be due to the introduction of CRC prevention programs, which facilitate early identification and higher survival chances.
