Core Tip	Investigating the potential oncological implications of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the gastrointestinal tract is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the virus's impact on the human organism. Recent research has identified a potential relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection and the development of gastrointestinal cancers, sparking important discussions about the virus's enduring health impacts. This review article highlights the pressing need for ongoing research to elucidate the complex relationship between SARS-CoV-2 and gastrointestinal oncogenesis, providing valuable insights that can inform both coronavirus disease 2019 management strategies and cancer prevention efforts.
