Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy worldwide. Although the recent development of adjuvant treatment has developed rapidly, it has only slightly Increased the survival rate of CRC Patients in an advanced stage. The prognosis of CRC patient strongly influenced by Several factors, such as tumor stage, clinical manifestations, histopathology and molecular oncogenicity of the tumor. COX-2 is an enzyme that plays a role in converting arachidonic acid into prostaglandins. The end product of COX-2 contributes to various biological factors in triggering tumor growth. The purpose of this research is to know the relationship of COX-2 expression with the clinical presentation such as patient age, location, and size of the tumor and histopathology in CRC patients.
