THE ALTERED COLON IN COLONIC OBSTRUCTION

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1972
A review of 110 cases of colonic obstruction due to carcinoma demonstrated a variety of alterations in the distended colon on the plain roentgenograms. These findings were: predominantly fluid-filled distention; mottled fluid; accentuation of haustrations in localized areas; decreased haustrations; thickened septa; irregular septa; increased numbers of

Colon heat and colon cancer

Medical Hypotheses, 2000
Epidemiological findings on the relation between foods and colon cancer are inconsistent. Many, but far from all, found positive associations for meat and fat and negative ones for vegetables and fruits. Explanations so far have focused on direct biochemical conversions in the colon or transit time, but they remain unable to explain the contradictory ...

The Colonic Microbiota and Colonic Disease

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2012
The colonic ecosystem differs from that in the proximal gut in several important respects. The colonic microbiota represents the largest population of microbes colonizing humans from birth. Constraints on bacterial numbers, composition, and interaction with the host involve not only the innate and acquired immune system, but also the colonic mucin ...

Inactivation of the type II TGF-beta receptor in colon cancer cells with microsatellite instability.

Science, 1995
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a potent inhibitor of epithelial cell growth. Human colon cancer cell lines with high rates of microsatellite instability were found to harbor mutations in the type II TGF-beta receptor (RII) gene. Eight such

VOLVULUS OF THE COLON

Archives of Surgery, 1950
THE NOUN volvulus has its origin from the Latin verb "volvere" which means "to turn about" or "to roll."

Laparoscopic colon resection for colon cancer

Journal of Surgical Research, 2004
Laparoscopic colon resection for cancer is as yet an unproven operation. This review article summarizes current data on the topic.A Medline review identified articles published since 1990 summarizing patients with potentially curable colon cancer who underwent a laparoscopic-assisted colon resection.
