ABSTRACT
A significant correlation between development of colonic polyps and long-lasting irritable colon syndrome was established. However, within the time interval studied (13-15 years), polyps which were mostly true adenomas did not turn malignant.

Colonic tumor dissemination to the ovaries was registered in 3%. The likelihood of such dissemination in locally-advanced cancer of the sigmoid colon was higher which in turn supports the hypothesis on colonic tumor dissemination to the ovary via transperitoneal implantation. The patients' condition improved and survival increased following excision of involved ovaries both during and at different stages after radical surgery. Preventive bilateral ovariectomy failed to improve 5-year survival.

An inverse correlation in stomach and large bowel cancer distribution was established as a result of an evaluation of cancer morbidity statistics for the City of Moscow in 1965-1980. The structure of gastrointestinal neoplasms in the next five years is likely to undergo changes in female population in which large bowel cancer is leading at present.

According to the authors' data, the 5 years' survival following economic resections of the rectum for cancer is not worse than that after radical operations, done on properly determined indications.

An analysis of statistical data indicates 0 growth of incidence and high percentage of advanced cases of rectum and colon cancer. The mean duration of preoperative history of rectum cancer comprises 8,9 months. The main causes of late diagnosis included the patients' unawareness of the symptoms of the lesion, and the defects of examinations performed in out-patient clinics. The efficacy of medical services rendered to this group of patients can be improved by extending the system of proctological services, establishing a practice of specialized out-patient examinations, screening procedures by proctologists, as well as developing modern diagnostic and operative measures for oncological lesions.
