    malignant growth in the colon or rectum

    Colon cancer, also known as colorectal cancer or bowel cancer, is a type of cancer that begins in the colon or rectum, parts of the large intestine. It typically starts as small, benign clumps of cells called polyps, which can over time become cancerous. Early detection through screening methods like colonoscopies is crucial, as it significantly improves treatment outcomes.
