Bengaluru, March 7 (Ians) Excessive consumption of red meat, refined sugar, and spicy food increases the risk of colorectal cancer, as per experts.
According to the Indian Council of Medical Research (Icmr) data, colon cancer is the fourth most prevalent cancer in Indian males and the fifth most common cancer in Indian women.
Dr Sandeep Nayak P, Director – Department of Surgical Oncology and Robotic and Laparoscopic Surgery, Fortis Hospital, Bannerghatta Road, Bengaluru states that Indian colorectal cancer scenario is different from that of the West.
“We have more rectal cancer (64 per cent) than colonic cancer (36 percent). Incidences are the exact reverse of this. This could be due to genetic differences between the Indian and western populations. However, what this means is that many more patients would be offered a permanent stoma (bag to drain stools) than in the west,” Dr Sandeep Nayak P. states.
“It is well established that diet affects the risk of colorectal cancer.

San Francisco, Sep 13 (Ians) Robotic surgeons from the US, India and Spain were named the top three winners in the Ks International Robotic Surgery Innovation competition, as robotic surgery slowly becomes mainstream.
The winners were selected by an international jury form Oxford and Stanford Universities, and New-Delhi based Aiims, from the fields of urology, gynaecology, general surgery, hepato-biliary-pancreatic surgery, colorectal, head and neck, paediatric and joint replacement surgeries.
The winning entry of Dr Jihad Kaouk, department of urology, Cleveland Clinic in Ohio was titled ‘Single Port Robot-Assisted Kidney Transplantation Extraperitoneal Approach’ in the unique competition organised by Michigan-based robotic surgery evangelist Vattikuti Foundation.
Dr Kaouk and his team modified the technique of robotic kidney transplant developed at the Vattikuti Urology Institute and Medanta Medicity.
Kaouk used a da Vinci single port robot for truly minimally invasive surgery.
