The colorectal adenoma-carcinoma sequence

    Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

    Abstract

    It is widely accepted that the adenoma-carcinoma sequence represents the process by which most, if not all, colorectal cancers arise. The evidence supporting this hypothesis has increased rapidly in recent years and the purpose of this article is to review this evidence critically and highlight its clinical significance.
