Resumen


El cáncer colorrectal (CCR) es el tercer tumor más frecuente en el mundo. Los datos epidemiológicos demuestran que tanto la incidencia como la mortalidad debidos a este tumor son menores en las mujeres que en los hombres. De hecho, numerosos estudios observacionales y experimentales sugieren que los estrógenos, tanto endógenos como exógenos, podrían jugar un papel protector relevante. En este artículo se van a discutir las diferencias epidemiológicas y sociológicas del CCR en función del género, algunas peculiaridades y barreras específicas para la prevención y el diagnóstico precoz del CCR en la mujer, y aspectos particulares de género sobre el impacto de las diversas terapias antineoplásicas, como son cirugía, radioterapia y quimioterapia, en la función sexual, la continencia esfinteriana y la calidad de vida de las mujeres.
