Colon cancer that has spread to the spine is considered metastatic disease or stage IV cancer. The 5 year survival rate for stage IV colon cancer is 5%. This means that on average only 5% of people will live for 5 years with the disease.

Bowel cancer primarily spreads to other parts of the body through a process called metastasis, often targeting the liver and lungs first. However, if bowel cancer metastasizes to the bones, it does not mean that the cancer can spread from the bones to other areas; rather, the cancer cells originated from the bowel. The bone metastasis indicates that the cancer has advanced, but it remains classified as bowel cancer regardless of where it spreads.
Dr. Kaitlin, from the University of Bristol, speaking at the 2019 NCRI Cancer Conference, confirmed that they have discovered evidence of the presence of an unclassified type of bacteria from the bacterial group named ‘Bacteroidales’ increased the chances of bowel cancer by 2 to 15 percent. The researchers employed the technique known as Mendelian randomization to examine the causative effect of bacteria in the development of bowel cancer.
No they are not the same. Bowel cancer can start in the large bowel (which includes the colon and rectum) or the small bowel. Situated in the upper half of the abdomen, the pancreas is part of the digestive system. For more straightforward information on pacreatic and bowel cancer visit the related links below.
No. While patients of some inflammatory bowel diseases can be more susceptible to cancer it is not the same disease. Inflammatory disease is a chronic inflammation of the bowel. Cancer is unregulated cell growth anywhere in the body.
