Abstract
Colorectal carcinoma accounts for the majority of all gastrointestinal cancers and is the second leading site of cancer, excluding skin cancers, in overall incidence in the United States. Cancer of the stomach, although decreasing in frequency is still an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, data from large numbers of patients such as can be found in Cancer Patient Survival Report No. 5 show only very modest increases in survival for patients with these diseases in recent years.
