predisposes to diverticulosis

cecum and right ½ of colon or left half of colon

New cards
90

tumor of cecum and right ½ of colon

does not cause obstruction because caliber is large and bowel contents are relatively soft. tumor can ulcerate and bleed leading to chronic iron deficiency anemia, weakness and fatigue

New cards
91

tumor of left ½ of colon

causes obstruction and symptoms of lower intestinal obstruction

New cards
92

diagnosis of colon carcinoma

narrowed colon on barium enema

New cards
93

change from normal colon to small benign polyp

loss of APC gene

New cards
94

change of small benign polyp to large benign polyp

corrected surgically, more technically difficult with less satisfactory results
