Doctors at Johns Hopkins are leading the way in research for treating APC I1307K and other colorectal conditions. We believe in staying active in current studies and promising new developments in colorectal conditions to further our understanding of these diseases. Through our continuous efforts to offer the latest treatment strategies, we continue to provide excellent patient care. Many patients choose to be part of our patient registry, which helps us gather information and learn how to take care of our patients even better in the future.

Treatment for APC I1307K depends on the results of the diagnosis. If your doctor found cancer during the examination, he or she will recommend colorectal surgery.

APC I1307K Treatment: Colorectal Surgery

The exact type of surgery depends on the stage of the cancer as well as your age, health and desires.

Factors to consider include: 

• Potential changes in your bowel function

• Risk of further cancer formation
  
  You are encouraged to seek genetic counseling as well as a colorectal surgical consultation.
