[Diagnosis, therapy, and follow up in synchronous colorectal cancer of the colon].
The authors report their experience with synchronous colorectal cancers (CRC). They underline the role of pre-operative diagnosis to improve surgical results and overall survival. The endoscopic surveillance allows the identification of neoplasms missed at previous examinations. In selected cases intraoperative colonoscopy may prove to be helpful.
