Rectal cancer, a type of colorectal cancer, affects the last portion of the large intestine and is often difficult to detect in its early stages. It can develop from benign polyps that slowly turn cancerous over time. Common symptoms include bleeding during bowel movements, a feeling of incomplete evacuation, persistent constipation or diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and unintended weight loss. If not diagnosed and treated early, rectal cancer can spread to nearby organs or tissues, making treatment more complicated. Surgery is the most effective option for many patients, especially in localized or early-stage cases. It involves removing the cancerous part of the rectum while preserving healthy surrounding tissues and ensuring bowel function is maintained. Due to the rectum's location deep within the pelvis, rectal cancer surgery requires high precision and surgical expertise—something that was previously hard to find in smaller cities like Moradabad.
