| [ Summary ] |
Cancer of large intestine with submucosal invasion, of IIc origins is a perfect example of the type of cancer which can be estimated pathologically. This type has the IIc form, and the depth of cancerous invasion is into the shallower portion of the submucosal layer. It is possible to divide IIc roughly into two types (the maximum dimension for type 1, is 3 or 4mm in size and the type 2 is about 20mm). The latter, which displays a transformed macroscopic appearance because of deeper cancerous invasion, is the common form of this pathological disease. These findings are discussed from the viewpoint of the authors. |
