Colorectal cancer is on the rise, with an increasing number of patients being diagnosed. The reasons for this are multifactorial. However, greater awareness and prompt screening have contributed to earlier detection and diagnosis. Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in men and the second most common in women, following breast cancer. This makes it a significant health concern, particularly given the complexity and duration of treatment. 

Despite these challenges, early diagnosis and treatment lead to better outcomes. 

Since its inception, CENGILD has been dedicated to the management of gastrointestinal diseases, with colorectal cancer being one of the primary conditions we treat. Our hospital is built around a core team of specialists in this field, including gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, liver surgeons, and oncologists. In addition, CENGILD has established an ecosystem of supporting specialists in interventional radiology, internal medicine, cardiology, and endocrinology. This makes CENGILD an optimal centre for the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. 

CENGILD is a one-stop centre for colorectal cancer management. A key aspect of our approach is the multidisciplinary management of each patient. As teamwork is one of our core values, every patient’s treatment plan is discussed among relevant specialists to ensure the best possible care. This collaborative approach leads to better results and improved outcomes. 

From a surgical perspective, patients benefit from having their procedures performed by two consultant surgeons—an option available exclusively at CENGILD. Cancer surgeries are complex procedures with inherent risks, and we offer both conventional (open) and keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery for suitable patients. The presence of two specialists enhances safety, reduces operating times, minimises complications, ensures personalised care, and ultimately leads to better outcomes. 

CENGILD offers comprehensive hospital facilities, including outpatient clinics, a laboratory, endoscopy suites, inpatient wards, a radiology department, and a fully equipped operating theatre. With all necessary examinations, tests, and investigations conducted in close proximity, patients experience a seamless and convenient healthcare journey. 

In summary, improving outcomes for colorectal cancer patients is achievable. Early detection, prompt diagnosis, and expert-led treatment are key to ensuring the best possible results.
