Abstrakt: The article discusses the results of a retrospective analysis of the World Health Organization mortality database to compute age adjusted rates of colorectal cancer mortality, according to the age distribution of the standard European population. Findings reveal a significant decline in colorectal cancer mortality in European countries since 1970 despite persistent differences between men and women and between specific regions in Europe.
