What are the symptoms of hereditary colon cancer?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Similar to regular: Colon cancer. There are a number of different hereditary abnormalities that lead to colon cancer, but the resulting colon cancer is often silent in early stages. The usual symptoms are intestinal obstruction, anemia, weight loss and symptoms due to spread to other organs.

None: Colon cancer does not cause symptoms unless advanced. Definitely bleeding rectally is one that you should not ignore.
