How common is colon cancer?
Colon cancer, also known as colorectal cancer, is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide.
According to the World Cancer Research Fund International, colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men and the second most common cancer in women.
In 2020, there were an estimated 1.9 million new cases of colorectal cancer diagnosed globally.
The incidence of colon cancer varies by region, with higher rates in developed countries such as the United States, Europe, and Australia, and lower rates in developing countries.
The lifetime risk of developing colon cancer in the United States is about 1 in 23 for men and 1 in 25 for women.
However, the overall incidence of colon cancer has been declining in recent years, likely due to increased screening and early detection.
