Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 321 patients with biopsy samples by colonoscopy at Soc Trang General Hospital from 05/2020 to 05/2021. Data were analyzed by RStudio version 1.2.5042. Results: The colorectal adenocarcinoma rate was 21.2%. Female and male patients were 45.6% and 54.4%. Most of the patients was Kinh people (64.7%). This disease was most common at the age of 60. Most of the patients worked in agriculture (55.9%), had primary education (75.0%) and marriage (91.2%). Majority of patients underwent colonoscopy because of colorectal cancer symptoms. The common gross appearance detected on endoscopy was 3/4 narrowed colonic lumen (45.6%), fungating mass (95.6%) Conclusion: there was a high rate of colorectal adenocarcinoma detected by the initial colonoscopy. The disease is equally distributed between gender, ethnic groups, but most commonly in the rectum. Silent onset and patient's low awareness of colorectal cancer may lead to late detection.
