Colorectal cancer is a common type of cancer in Switzerland, especially in women. But the good news is that early detection makes a significant difference.
The survival rate for colorectal cancer is steadily increasing in Switzerland. Nevertheless, the number of new cases remains largely constant.
If colorectal cancer is detected and treated early, the chances of recovery are very good. Regular examinations from the age of 50 and earlier examinations for people with a family history can save lives!
