COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING AND MANAGEMENT SYMPOSIUM AT THE MEDICAL CITY

"The world celebrates Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month this month of March. This symposium is part of an awareness campaign to promote colorectal cancer screening which is the third most common cancer among Filipinos. The Colorectal Clinic at The Medical City aims to be part at the forefront of the Filipinos battle against colorectal cancer. Our message is that cancer screening can save lives. This strategy has been shown to reduce colorectal cancer risk by as high as 70 percent." ~Dr. Jun Ruiz, Gastroenterologist and one of the specialist from the TMC Colorectal Clinic

It was not just a privileged but a gift as well to be invited on the symposium, i got to meet some of the doctors who specializes in Colorectal Cancer perfect for the celebration of colon cancer awareness month, premier health institution The Medical City (TMC) holds a symposium last March 14, 2017 tittled "Advances in the Screening and Management of Colorectal Cancer" at the Augusto Barcelon Auditorium.Organized by the TMC Cancer Center, the Colorectal Clinic, and the Center for Patient Partnership.

Colorectal cancer also known as bowel cancer, is the development of cancer from the colon or rectum (parts of the large intestine). A cancer is the abnormal growth of cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Signs and symptoms may include blood in the stool, a change in bowel movements, weight loss, and feeling tired all the time.
Dr. Jun Ruiz, Gastroenterologist and one of the specialist from the TMC Colorectal Clinic
Most colorectal cancers are due to old age and lifestyle factors with only a small number of cases due to underlying genetic disorders. 

Some risk factors include diet, obesity, smoking, and lack of physical activity. Dietary factors that increase the risk include red and processed meat as well as alcohol. Another risk factor is inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. 
It typically starts as a being tumor, often in the form of a polyp, which over time becomes cancerous.

Treatments used for colorectal cancer may include some combination of surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. Cancers that are confined within the wall of the colon may be curable with surgery while cancer that has spread widely are usually not curable, with management being directed towards improving quality of life and symptoms. 
Dr. Manuel Francisco T. Roxas, Chairman of the Department of Surgery and consultant-director of the Colorectal Clinic

Different topics had been discussed including:
  • Updates in Diagnosis and Screening of Colorectal Cancer
  • Recent Technological Advances in Colorectal Surgery
  • Hitting the Target in Colorectal Cancer Treatment
Dr. Beaitrice J. Tiangco, The Medical City Oncologist

It was indeed a very inspiring and encouraging words of motivation for a person who has and undergoing Colorectal Cancer... that no matter what there are such words and medicine as Curable, Extendable and Improvable.....

One of the living proof that there is hope in Colorectal Cancer is Mr. Christian Guerrero, who undergone surgery and well maybe not totally cured but at least he had surpassed the stage wherein he is now much more aware, protected and being taken cared of with the Doctors of TMC.

One of the main highlight of the event is when Dr. Enrique A. Tayag together with the other Doctors had their moment to dance after his speech during the symposium...

Dr. Enrique A. Tayag

Just like the old saying goes "Prevention is better than cure" indeed nowadays with the latest in technology there are a lot of new machine that can easily do the job for medicine as well as for Doctors. I had learned a lot from the symposium it may not directly have a concern on me but for my family i can impart them the knowledge i had learn from the Doctors. I just wished one of them could be my personal doctor and can afford the cost. Because i had an Aunt who had in breast cancer and due to lack of financial during her illness she lasted about more or less 2 years after her surgery but we made sure it was long well lived. What i wanted for the Filipino people specially the less fortunate one's is that a medicine, machine and or cure that is readily available and cost wise. What a wonderful world it would be!!!!!

Manila, Philippines—If there is one thing we, Filipinos, are known for besides our hospitality, it would probably be our love for food. From deep-fried favorites to local sweets and delicacies, the dining table is never short of one spectacular dish or two. 

This love for food also made way for us to experiment on different ingredients and cooking techniques, producing even more mouthwatering dishes. But usually, in our passion to find the dish that would tickle our taste buds, we have forgotten to be more cautious and picky with the ingredients we use. While experimenting on food items sounds fun, it can also become time-consuming, expensive, and unhealthy.

With the right equipment though, you can turn even the simplest of ingredients into a scrumptious—and nutritious—meal. 

The Sharp Steamwave Oven is a 3-in-1 cooking system that allows you to Steam, Grill, and Reheat. With its different features, you can keep on cooking your favorite dishes and at the same time explore new recipes.

Steaming might sound bland at first but with some creativity, it might just become your favorite cooking method. Not only can it be used for vegetables and fish, but it is also a viable cooking technique for meats like pork and chicken and for some desserts too.

  5. Pull up the ends of the foil basket to create a shallow bowl and then pour some white wine. Wrap and close the foil basket.
