Most often, colon cancer spreads to the liver, but it can also spread to the ovaries, lungs, or brain. Colon cancer tends to spread to the liver first, because all of the blood from the colon drains to the liver before proceeding to the rest of the body.
Cancer cells can spread locally by moving into nearby normal tissue. Cancer can also spread regionally, to nearby lymph nodes, tissues, or organs. And it can spread to distant parts of the body. When this happens, it is called metastatic cancer. For many types of cancer, it is also called stage IV (four) cancer.
