Digestive Cancers
Digestive cancers can develop in different organs of the digestive system.
Find clear, reliable information about each cancer, including risk factors, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and living with the disease.
Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer, also called bowel cancer, starts in the colon or rectum.
Many cases begin as polyps that can develop into cancer over time.
Gastric and Oesophageal Cancer
Gastric cancer begins in the stomach, while oesophageal cancer begins in the tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach.
Liver Cancer
Primary liver cancer starts in the liver. Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common type. Cancer can also spread to the liver from elsewhere.
Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer begins in the pancreas, an organ that helps digest food and regulate blood sugar. Most pancreatic cancers start in exocrine cells.
Rare Cancers
Rare digestive cancers develop in less common sites or cell types. DiCE provides information on anal, appendiceal, gallbladder and small intestine cancers.
