Prostate Cancer

April/2005    Health update

 

Treating prostate cancer with

radiation significantly increases

The risk of developing colon cancer according to researchers from the University of Minnesota. Using federal data from 1973 to 1994 they identified 30,552 men who had received radiation treatment, and 1,437 developed colorectal cancer, about 70% more than they expected. The team noted that the radiation treatment is still highly effective for prostate cancer and should not be abandoned.
