Adenoacanthoma of the cecum

The American Journal of Surgery, 1954
Abstract A case of adenoacanthoma of the cecum is presented. Such cases are rare. The possibility that this case was related to the presence of a cecal fistula following cecostomy is suggested. A similar case is presented by Plenge. These cases may, perhaps, be considered as following metaplasia associated with long-standing chronic inflammation.

Benign ulcer of the cecum

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1981

Anatomy of the avian cecum

Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1989
The gross anatomy of the avian ceca is reviewed. In most birds, right and left ceca arise laterally or ventrolaterally at the junction of the small and large intestines. In a few species, the ceca open into the rectum ventrally or dorsally. In many herons and bitterns, only one cecum is present, and in the secretary bird there are two pairs of ceca ...
