Colorectal cancer (CRC) is currently the most common malignity of the gastrointestinal (GI) system in the world. CRC is the third most frequently diagnosed cancer in the U.S.A and it ranks third in cancer-related causes of death. Its etiology is complex, involving both environmental and genetic factors.
