In general, if the cancer is found only in the part of the body where it started it is <em>localized</em> (sometimes referred to as stage 1). If it has spread to a different part of the body, the stage is <em>regional</em> or <em>distant</em>. The earlier colorectal cancer is caught, the better chance a person has of surviving five years after being diagnosed. For colorectal cancer, 34.8% are diagnosed at the local stage. The 5-year relative survival for localized colorectal cancer is 91.1%.</p> <div class="statWrap survival-factSheet"> <strong class="title">Percent of Cases & 5-Year Relative Survival by Stage at
