ESSO Webinar on Controversies in Colorectal Cancer (Part 1) – Early Colorectal Cancer

This ESSO webinar is the first in series ‘Current Controversies in Colorectal Cancer’ and will focus on the treatment of patients with early colorectal cancer. Bowel cancer screening programmes have increased the number of patients diagnosed with early colorectal cancer, in whom the optimal treatment strategy remains a topic of debate. In this webinar we will discuss how these patients are treated at present and the possible shortcomings of these strategies. Potential improvements will then be introduced, both in the form of a more conservative approach to completion surgery in favour of close surveillance and more accurate stratification of risk profiles within this patient group.
