What is Colorectal Cancer?

Colorectal cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the colon or rectum, which are parts of the large intestine. Colon cancer begins in the colon, while rectal cancer develops in the rectum. Many colorectal cancers start as small, non-cancerous growths called polyps that can become cancerous over time if left untreated.

Early diagnosis is essential for successful treatment. When detected in its initial stages, colorectal cancer is highly treatable and often associated with excellent outcomes. Regular screening and timely consultation can significantly improve survival rates.

Common Symptoms of Colorectal Cancer

Blood in Stool

Visible or hidden blood in the stool should always be evaluated by a specialist.

Change in Bowel Habits

Persistent constipation, diarrhea, or alternating bowel patterns may indicate underlying concerns.

Persistent Abdominal Pain

Ongoing abdominal discomfort, cramps, or bloating should not be ignored.

Unexplained Weight Loss

Sudden and unintentional weight loss can sometimes be a warning sign of cancer.

Fatigue

Persistent tiredness or weakness may occur due to anemia or chronic blood loss.

Feeling of Incomplete Bowel Emptying

A constant urge to pass stool even after using the restroom may require further evaluation.

We are deeply grateful to Sanket Sir for his exceptional care throughout our entire journey. From day one, he has been approachable, compassionate, and incredibly patient in explaining every step of the treatment. He performed the complex cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC for my wife with remarkable precision and confidence, and ensured we always felt informed and supported. His experience shows not only in the surgery, but also in the way he communicates — calmly, clearly, and with genuine concern for the patient and the family. What stands out most is his availability and willingness to guide us, even outside regular hours, whenever we needed reassurance or advice. He truly goes above and beyond for his patients. We feel very fortunate to have been under his care. Thank you, sir , for helping us through one of the toughest phases of our lives.

Dr. Sanket Sah is truly a life-saver. My father, Awadhesh Kr, was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer in February 2025. His condition was extremely critical, and we were devastated. In July, Dr. Sah performed a complex surgery that gave my father a second chance at life. What makes Dr. Sah exceptional is not just his surgical expertise, but his humility and compassion. I was initially very afraid to go ahead with the operation, but he patiently explained every detail and reassured me with calm confidence, saying, “Nothing will happen, don’t worry.” That one sentence gave me the courage I needed. His ability to instill confidence in both patients and their families truly sets him apart. He listens with patience, answers every question clearly, and treats his patients with genuine care. My father always praises him, calling him an honest and sincere doctor—and I wholeheartedly agree. If you're seriously looking for a trustworthy and skilled oncosurgeon, I genuinely recommend Dr. Sanket Sah. He is a blessing to our town and to every patient he treats.
