A study led by Mithili Menon Pathiyil at SUNY Upstate Medical University reveals a sharp increase in rectal cancer deaths among young adults aged 20 to 44, especially those in their mid-30s to early 40s. Data from 1999 to 2023 shows rectal cancer mortality rising two to three times faster than colon cancer, with Hispanic populations and Western US residents most affected. Delayed diagnosis in younger patients is a key factor.
