RODRIGUEZ FERNANDEZ, Zenén et al. Some specificities on the diagnosis of the recurrent colon cancer. MEDISAN [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.2, pp.169-179. ISSN 1029-3019.

Women older than 65 years, the primary tumour in the ascending colon, with postoperative staging III and II, the locorregional recurrence, as well as the palpable tumour as presentation form prevailed. The clinical method, the echography and the x-ray for enema were decisive for the diagnosis. It is concluded that during the first 2 years of the postoperative follow-up all means should be used for the early diagnosis of this recurrence, independently from its localization
