    In 86 (49.4%) of 173 patients cancer of the colon of various localizations against the background of diffuse polyposis was diagnosed, rectal involvement being noted in 50%, cancer involvement of the cecum involvement of the cecum and ascending colon--in 5.4% and 7.2% accordingly. These data made it possible to revise an existing concept of preservation of the rectum in radicalsurgery for diffuse polyposis in favour of remaining right portions of the colon.
