Abstract

Background: Colon cancer is the third leading cause of cancer morbidity and mortality in the world. Objectives: To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with colon cancer. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was used to analyze the characteristics of colon cancer patients in the Service of General Surgery of Military Hospital Octavio de la Concepción y la Pedraja from October 2013 to August 2017. The universe consisted of 61 patients with colon cancer. Results: The study was mainly female, and the patients over 60 years old accounted for the majority, especially the patients in the age group of 70–79 years old. Villous adenoma was the most common history. Low gastrointestinal bleeding was the main manifestation of left tumor patients. Most cancers were well differentiated. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological type. Conclusion: Villous adenoma was the main pathological history of women aged 70–79. Lower gastrointestinal bleeding was the most common clinical manifestation, which was related to left position. Some patients need surgical treatment, and the most commonly used technique was left hemicolectomy. Most tumors were well differentiated with chronic inflammation.
