Posted Thursday August 24, 2023

The ‘Update on Surveillance Recommendations for Individuals with a Family/Whānau History of Colorectal Cancer’ have been published on the Te Whatu Ora website here. This document is an update to the 2012 NZ Guidelines Group surveillance recommendations for individuals with a family/whanau history of colorectal cancer.

The update was required because a National Bowel Screening Programme impacts on the appropriate surveillance advice for these individuals. This document was developed by a committee working underneath the National Bowel Cancer Working Group which is co-hosted by the National Screening Unit (within Te Whatu Ora) and Te Aho o Te Kahu (the Cancer Control Agency).
