Colorectal cancer rates rising in nearly all age groups

Original: Rising rates of colorectal cancer found in nearly all age groups

New reporting from UChicago Medicine highlights that colorectal cancer diagnoses are increasing across nearly every age group, reversing decades of decline in older adults. Doctors point to trends including more early-onset cases in adults under 50, and health experts are urging people to get screened, noting that colonoscopies and other tests can catch the disease early when it is most treatable. The findings renew debate over diet, lifestyle and screening guidelines.

Why now: A major cancer center reported rising colorectal cancer rates across age groups, prompting renewed discussion about screening and prevention.
