Overview

Colorectal cancer must be differentiated from other diseases that cause unexplained weight loss, unexplained loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, anemia, jaundice, and fatigue, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, anal fissures, and diverticular disease. There are less common conditions that may be confused as colorectal cancer such as infectious colitis and gastrointestinal lymphoma.

Colorectal Cancer Differential Diagnosis

Other conditions that can be mistaken for colorectal cancer include the following:

Diseases Clinical manifestations Para-clinical findings Gold standard
Symptoms
Lab Findings Imaging Histopathology
Constipation/
Diarrhea 		Blood in stool Abdominal pain Other symptoms Anemia Colonoscopy CT scan Other diagnostic study
Adenocarcinoma[7]

+
  • Diffuse abdominal pain +/-
 +
  • Different grades of differentiation of glandular structures

    • Multiple juvenile polyps throughout the GI tract
    • Any number of juvenile polyps and a family history of juvenile polyposis
    • Heterozygous pathogenic variant in SMAD4 or BMPR1A
  • Numerous cystic and dilated crypts or glands with inspissated mucin and intraluminal neutrophils
