Mistaken diagnosis of colorectal cancer

[reverto1766]

Hello, I was wondering if any of the forum members have come across cases of false diagnosis of colorectal cancer ? If so are the case details available somewhere ? - Reverto

I'm seeing one tomorrow. Diagnosed with colon cancer, found to actually have a sarcoma. By the time our discussion is over tomorrow, this person will be begging for a diagnosis of colon cancer.

I am trying to learn about clinical diagnosis of colorectal cancer, cases of false positives, false negatives etc. The sarcoma case you mentioned is indeed very interesting. Could someone please point me to any free online repositories of colorectal cancer reports, I just want to go through a bunch of clinical and pathological reports to understand them a bit more...

Thanks !!!
