Gastrointestinal Cancers

Gastrointestinal cancers, or GI cancers, refer to all types of cancers that form along the 25-foot-long path from where food goes into your body, through the esophagus, to where it comes out, the anus. Cancers of the colon and rectum account for the majority of GI cancers. However, there are many types of GI cancers. Together, they make up more than one-quarter of all the cancers reported worldwide.
