COLON CANCER PREVENTION
SUCCESS STORY: DR. LUIS SOTELO
YOUNG PATIENT WITH HEMORRHAGE
A 38-year-old patient was referred by his attending physician for bleeding through the anus. During the colonoscopy, a polyp of more than 2 cm in diameter was found with changes suggestive of malignancy.
SUCCESSFUL RESECTION WITHOUT SURGERY
During the same colonoscopy procedure, the lesion was removed, and microscopic analysis revealed cancerous cells that had been completely removed during the procedure, preventing their progression.
Colon cancer is preventable and curable when detected early.
