Treatment plans vary based on the cancer’s stage, location, and the patient’s overall health. Common treatments include:
• Surgery: To remove the tumor and possibly part of the affected colon. In some cases, a colostomy (an opening in the abdomen for waste removal) may be necessary.
• Chemotherapy: To kill cancer cells or shrink tumors, often used after surgery to reduce the risk of recurrence.
• Radiation Therapy: Sometimes used to target cancer cells, particularly if the cancer is in the rectum.
• Targeted Therapy and Immunotherapy: For advanced cases, these treatments focus on specific cancer cell mechanisms or boost the body’s immune response.
