Creating a Consciouness for screening: did you
know that . . . • Colorectal cancer kills more than AIDS and
Diabetes ?• In some countries (Brazil included) colorectal
cancer causes more deaths per year than ovarian, uterine, prostate or even lung cancer ?

Relevant Features of Colorectal Cancer:
1 - Special risk factors
• Diet habits• Inflamatory bowel diseases• Familial adenomatous polyposis syndrome
• Strong incidence of cancer in the family

Relevant Features of Colorectal Cancer:
3 - Clinical manifestations
• Low intestinal bleeding
• Altered bowel habits
• Unexplained weight loss

Relevant Features of Colorectal Cancer:
4 - Pathology
• 90% of Colorectal malignant tumors are Carcinomas
• 60-70% of the lesions are located in the last 1/3 part of large bowel
• 30% of all lesions can be reached by digital exam only

Colorectal Cancer Screening Program - Step
1
• Faecal-occult-blood test (FOBT) in people after age 50 and/or with known risk factors and/or physical evidences
suggesting colorretal cancer
![Page 14: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program - Step
1a
• Patients with negative FOBT, without evidences at physical examination
and/or without risk factors: • repeat FOBT every year
![Page 15: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program - Step
1b
• Patients with negative FOBT but with sustained clinical suspicion and/or with risk
factors: go to Step 2
![Page 16: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program - Step
1c
• Patients with positive FOBT: go to Step 2 (sigmoidoscopy)
![Page 17: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program - Step
2
• Sigmoidoscopy (flexible if possible)
![Page 18: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program Step 2a - Negative
Sigmoidoscopy
• Patients without clinical suspicion and any risk factor: follow up with FOBT every year, one sigmoidoscopy each 3-5 years and one colonoscopy each 10 years.
![Page 19: Colorectal Cancer Proposal of a Screening Program for Developing Countries with Emphasis on Costs](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062515/56649f445503460f94c64a71/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Colorectal Cancer Screening Program Step 2b - Negative
Sigmoidoscopy
• Patients with sustained clinical suspicion and/or any risk factor: consider Barium enema. One can choose promptly performing a Colonoscopy (Step 3)
• If all negative: follow up as Step 2a.

Colorectal Cancer Screening Program Step 2c - Positive Sigmoidoscopy
• Go to Step 3 (Colonoscopy), after collecting samples.

Colorectal Cancer Screening Program
Step 3 - Colonoscopy
• To further exam the extention of a particular lesion and to identify more lesions
• Patients with negative colonoscopy: follow up as Step 2a.

Colorectal Cancer Screening Program
Hole of Barium Enema
• Detect other lesions
• Can be replace (with restrictions) colonoscopy where this exame is not obtainable
