Content Inside: Incidence and Mortality Rate Trends
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer and the third leading cause of cancerrelated mortality in the United States. Over the past decade, colorectal cancer incidence and mortality rates have modestly decreased or remained level. Until age 50, men and women have similar incidence and mortality rates; after age 50, men are more vulnerable. There are striking differences between racial and ethnic groups in both incidence and mortality. Mortality rates for Hispanics, Asians or Pacific Islanders, and American Indians/Alaskan Natives are lower than those for Whites or African Americans. It is estimated that approximately $8.4 billion is spent in the United States each year on treatment of colorectal cancer.
