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 to other parts of the body through the blood or lymph vessels. Most colon cancers start in the cells that line the inside of the large intestine. Tumor cells grow there, invade through the layers of the colon, and spread to lymph nodes and other tissues.
