摘要
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Although genetic testing can screen for rare hereditary CRC syndromes, there is no ideal means of screening for sporadic forms of CRC. This review will focus on markers that are currently used in the management of sporadic CRC and their limitations, as well as possible future clinical applications. (C) 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
