The overall incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) has been decreasing since 1998, but there has been an apparent rise in the incidence of CRC in young adults. To evaluate age-related disparities in secular trends in CRC incidence in the United States. A retrospective cohort study using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) CRC registry. Age at diagnosis was analyzed in 15-year intervals starting at the age of 20. SEER*Stat was used to obtain the annual cancer incidence rates, annual percent change (APC), and corresponding p-values for the secular trends. Data was obtained from the National Cancer Institute’s SEER registry. All patients diagnosed with colon or rectal cancer from January 1, 1975 through December 31, 2010 (N = 393,241). Difference in CRC incidence by age. Overall age-adjusted CRC incidence rate decreased by 0.92% between 1975 and 2010. There has been a steady decline in the incidence of CRC in patients age 50 years or older, but the opposite trend has been observed for young adults. For patients 20 to 34 years of age, the incidence rate of localized, regional and distant colon and rectal cancer has increased. Increasing incidence rate was also observed for rectal cancer patients aged 35 to 49. Based on current trends, in 2030 the incidence rate for colon and rectal cancer will increase by 90.0% and 124.2% for patients 20 to 34 years of age and by 27.7% and 46.0% for patients 35 to 49 years of age. There has been a significant increase in the incidence of CRC diagnosed in young adults, with a decline in older patients. Further studies are needed to determine the cause for these trends and identify potential preventive and early detection strategies.
