Zusammenfassung

Der Darmkrebs steht heute in vielen Staaten der westlichen Welt — so auch hierzulande — bei beiden Geschlechtern an zweiter Stelle unter den Krebstodesursachen. Im folgenden werden die Krebse des Kolons (des Dickdarms) und die des Rektums (des Mastdarms) gesondert betrachtet, da ihre Morbidität, ihre Mortalität und ihre Trends unterschiedlich sind.
