About The Study: Patients with early-onset colorectal cancer (defined as colorectal cancer diagnosed in individuals younger than 50 years) living in rural areas had lower 5-year survival rates than their urban dwelling counterparts in this study. While it was not observed consistently for all age groups, persistent poverty in these rural areas may compound this association.
