Fungal cancer

Fungal carcinoma is a malignant tumor that originates in the colon and spreads throughout the gastrointestinal system. The development of cancer is associated with the presence of tumors in the intestines or digestive tract, as well as certain genetic factors. Fungal cancer develops slowly over several years. Symptoms are mostly nonspecific and include chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, weight loss, anemia, and malabsorption. Clinical signs usually do not appear until the tumor has reached a significant size. Typically, fungal cancer is diagnosed after endoscopic procedures or colonoscopy of the colon.

Treatment for fungus cancer involves surgical removal of the tumor and destruction of all possible cancer cells. The operation may be complicated by the infiltration of cancer cells into the surrounding tissue, which increases the risk of complications and postoperative complications. In case of relapse of the disease, additional radical surgery is performed.
