How rare is colon cancer in a 25 year old?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Quite Rare: It is relatively rare. This raises the question of a genetic predisposition to this cancer (e.g. Lynch syndrome). The 25yo with the colon cancer should be seen by a genetics counseling team as well for possible genetic testing.
