Tip
titleColorectum

The terms colorectal and colorectum, commonly used by pathologists, are included in descriptions for concepts referring to neoplasms modeled with 1285733009 |Structure of cecum and/or colon and/or rectum (body structure)|. 1285733009 |Structure of cecum and/or colon and/or rectum (body structure)| is needed because neoplasms are the same from the cecum to rectum and are considered as a group in cancer synoptic reporting protocols. Note, there is no consensus concerning the definition of colon in the literature and between different domains.


Congenital neoplasm

When modeling a congenital neoplasm disorder, the attribute-value relationship of Pathological process (attribute) = Pathological development process (qualifier value) is not used.
