Carcinoma in situ: colon - what does this mean
Carcinoma in situ of the colon is a type of cancer that begins in the innermost layer of the colon's wall. it is a non-invasive form of cancer, meaning that the cancer cells are still located within the layer of cells in which they began and have not spread to other layers or organs.
What happens during the disease - carcinoma in situ: colon
Carcinoma in situ of the colon is a pre-cancerous condition in which abnormal cells are present in the innermost lining of the colon, but have not yet spread to other layers of the colon wall or to nearby lymph nodes. it is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, such as an unhealthy diet, smoking, and exposure to certain chemicals. these factors can cause mutations in the cells of the colon that cause them to grow and divide uncontrollably, leading to the formation of a tumor.
