MODEL RELEASED. Bowel cancer surgery. Close-up of a surgeon discovering a malignant tumour (carcinoma,lower centre,yellow and black) in a patient's intestines in the early stages of exploratory bowel surgery. The surgery was intended to remove only a relatively small part of the colon due to the diagnosis of what was thought to be a small lesion,but when the abdomen was opened this large tumour was found. The surgery was changed to a Hartmann's operation that removed the tumour and the surrounding intestines (the sigmoid colon and rectum). The healthy intestine was diverted to a colostomy opening in the side of the abdomen | |
