- Colorectal cancer can occur without symptoms, making regular colorectal screenings important for detecting early problems.
- One possible early sign is bleeding, but tumors often bleed only slightly and intermittently, so blood may be detected only through chemical stool testing.
- As tumors grow larger, possible symptoms can include changed bowel habits, blood in the stool, unexplained anemia, stomach or gas pain, weight loss, fatigue, and vomiting.
- Blood in the stool does not necessarily indicate cancer, since hemorrhoids, ulcers, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, iron, or certain foods may cause bleeding or a similar discoloration, so medical evaluation is advised.

- Founded this spring, FURORE combines diagnosis, counselling and treatment while also serving patients seeking second opinions.
- Treatment depends on tumor characteristics and personal preferences; FURORE therefore emphasizes shared decision-making.
- If the tumor responds well to radiochemotherapy, surgery may potentially be avoided; close follow-up remains necessary.
- For about three percent with microsatellite-unstable tumors, immunotherapy may suffice; Watch and Wait requires regular examinations.
This therapy is so complex that it should be carried out only at certified and specialized centers like FURORE.— Claus Rödel, radiation oncologist and guideline author for rectal cancer at the University Medical Center Frankfurt; explained the need for centralization of care to specialized centers.
