This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: colon cancer with resection, Surgical management colostomy, client had colon resection a incision is made in the abdomen, under general anesthesia, hyperplasia of the smooth muscle thickened vessels with narrowed lumina leading to plaque formation, Nonsurgical managment antiemetics, diagnostics sigmoidoscopy, chemical mutagens in food exposure to carcinogens, animal fat from red meats increases anaerobic bacteria, Crohn's disease increases risk for CRC, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer gene mutations, inflammatory bowel disease ulcerative colitis, invasive tumors continue to grow until thier size puts pressure on surrounding cells, cutting off thier blood supply unti they die invasive tumors grow into neighboring tissues by growing into the spaces left from cell damage. Receptors on cancer cell surfaces help attachment to cell basment membrane. The cells also produce proteolytic enzymes that enable them to degrade neighboring cells and invade them. these cells also produce chemoactic factors to aid motility as well as develop psudopodia to fascilitate movement., classified as Benign or malignant benign have well differentioated cells, capsulate,defined borders, slow growth that dispaces surrounding tissues but does not invade it, cause slight damage, and do not spread(metastisize), CT lungs, invasive tumors grow into neighboring tissues by growing into the spaces left from cell damage. Receptors on cancer cell surfaces help attachment to cell basment membrane. The cells also produce proteolytic enzymes that enable them to degrade neighboring cells and invade them. these cells also produce chemoactic factors to aid motility as well as develop psudopodia to fascilitate movement. Metastatic tumors begin with the spread of cancer cells to a new area of the body. Can travel in blood and lymph vessels as well as on surgical instruments and gloved hands., genetic predisposition 1st degree relative w/CRC have 3-4fold chance, rectal bleeding may contain various amounts of blood, uncontrolled cell growth leads to the development of tumors Tumors can be localized, invasive, or metastatic, these cells vary size and shape, function abnormally don't resemble the cell of origin produce substances not normally associated with the original cell, are not encapsulated, and can spread to other sites. uncontrolled cell growth leads to the development of tumors, CT abdomen, high fat diet animal fat from red meats
