title: [Colorectal carcinoma and diabetes mellitus].
abstract: The aim of this overview notification is to point out the risk factors and causes ofcolorectal carcinoma in diabetics. On the basis of recent information in the literature Type 2 diabetes mellitus has begun to appear as a potential risk factor for colorectal carcinoma. The work focuses on the link between them and outlines a possible solution to this topical issue. When tracking the diabetic population it is recommended that current depistage programmes for colorectal carcinoma be strictly maintained, that dispensing programmes not be neglected, in working with gastroenterologists to share the planning and specific preparation of a diabetic for endoscopy and other interventions and when treating with insulin to give preference to small complementary doses. It is proposed that the dispensing programme for this malignancy be modified for diabetics.
