Clinical manifestations of cancer of the colon and rectum

P V Woolley 3rd. Semin Oncol. 1976 Dec.

Abstract

Cancer of the large bowel produces a background of abdominal pain, bleeding, and altered bowel function. The anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the bowel modify this basic pattern to emphasize certain features and minimize others, so that disease in different locations produces different patterns.
