Understanding Colon Cancer
Colon cancer develops in the large intestine, usually from polyps that grow over time. Accurate staging guides the most effective treatment.
Precancerous Polyps
Removed during colonoscopy before they can turn into cancer, which is why screening is so valuable.
Early-Stage Cancer
Localized tumors are often cured with minimally invasive surgery alone and an excellent prognosis.
Advanced Disease
More advanced tumors are treated with surgery combined with chemotherapy, coordinated for the best outcome.
Symptoms and Risk Factors
Warning signs include changes in bowel habits, blood in the stool, abdominal cramping, unexplained fatigue or anemia, and unintended weight loss. Early colon cancer often has no symptoms at all, which is why screening is essential.
Risk factors include age over 45, a family or personal history of colorectal cancer or polyps, inflammatory bowel disease, and inherited syndromes. A screening colonoscopy is the single most effective way to prevent the disease or catch it early.
Colon Cancer Treatment Options
Dr. Nasseri builds an individualized plan focused on cure, faster recovery, and coordinated care with your oncology team.

Polyp Removal
Advanced polyps are removed during colonoscopy, often preventing cancer entirely.
Coordinated Chemotherapy
When indicated, surgery is combined with chemotherapy, all coordinated with your medical oncologist.

Colon Cancer FAQs
Can colon cancer be prevented?
Often, yes. Screening colonoscopy can find and remove precancerous polyps before they ever become cancer, making it one of the most effective cancer-prevention tools available.
How is colon cancer surgery performed?
Most operations are performed robotically or laparoscopically through small incisions, which means less pain, a shorter hospital stay, and a faster recovery than traditional open surgery.

You should be evaluated promptly if you have persistent symptoms, a new diagnosis, or a strong family history. Early evaluation of the disease leads to more options and better outcomes. Call (424) 655-3312 to be seen this week.
