Is it true that colon cancer is more common in men than in women?
Partly. The retrieved items only partially address the claim. One study found no significant sex difference in right colon cancer incidence, while another reports higher right colon cancer proportions in women in Osaka; neither directly settles overall colon cancer incidence by sex.
