'PROSTATE cancer has overtaken colorectal cancer to become the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in Australia. And figures show that the numbers of new prostate cancer cases are rising far faster than expected.

A report by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, to be released today, says that in contrast to forecasts published in 2005 projecting 12,929 new cases of prostate cancer in 2006, the true number will be about 18,700.

Today's report shows that prostate cancer has already overtaken colorectal cancer, based on the latest figures, which relate to 2003. They show there were 13,526 new prostate cancers diagnosed in 2003, compared with 12,536 cases of colorectal cancer.'
