Abstract:
Colorectal cancer is a major disease threatening the health of Chinese people, which has led to a heavy social burden. In this article, we briefly summarized the progress made on prevention and control of colorectal cancer, including risk factors identification and setting up intervention, screening, and early detection programs. Considerations regarding the directions on prevention and control of colorectal cancer in the future were also mentioned. Hopefully, the collective information could provide technical evidence to the ongoing practical and effective programs on prevention and control of colorectal cancer in this country.
