Aumentan las muertes por cáncer colorrectal, sobre todo en menores de 50 años

Los datos de salud federales mostraron que las muertes por cáncer colorrectal están creciendo, con la incidencia entre adultos menores de 50 años casi duplicándose desde el 2000, lo que ha generado llamados a iniciar el cribado antes. La tendencia se ha observado en todo el país, y funcionarios de salud pública señalaron que este aumento subraya la necesidad de reevaluar las directrices actuales de cribado.
