Location of colorectal cancer: colonoscopy versus surgery. Yield of colonoscopy in predicting actual location
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Recent studies suggest that differences in biological characteristics and risk factors across cancer site within the colon and rectum may translate to differences in survival.

DESIGN Prospective, multicenter screening trial. SETTING 3 me...
