MODEL RELEASED. Bowel cancer surgery. Close-up of surgeons preparing a colostomy opening in the side of a patient's abdomen following bowel cancer surgery. The surgeons had performed a Hartmann's operation following the discovery of a large malignant tumour (carcinoma). The operation was carried out following exploratory bowel surgery prompted by an initial diagnosis of an intestinal lesion. The operation removed the tumour and the surrounding intestines (the sigmoid colon and rectum),and the healthy intestine was diverted to this colostomy opening to allow evacuation of faeces to a colostomy bag | |
