[Recommendations for the patient during the treatment of colorectal cancer through the enhanced recovery.]

It is estimated that colorectal cancer is the cancer disease with the highest incidence in Spain  due to the increase in life expectancy and changes in the lifestyle of the population . Early detection through disease screening programs allows for more effective treatment and a higher survival rate . Advances in treatment have been made, such as targeted therapies, which focus on specifically attacking cancer cells and preventing their growth . However, much remains to be done in terms of prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer. More research and medical advances are required to combat this disease.
