Last Resort Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Farrah Fawcett has died. She was 62. It had been reported that the 'Charlie's Angels' star - whose anal cancer has spread to her liver - was hospitalized earlier this week, but had been moved to another unit as her condition has deteriorated. Fawcett died at 9:28 a.m. PST at St. John's Heath Center in Santa Monica, Calif. It has been reported the 62-year-old actress' condition was so serious her friends and family gathered at the St. John's Health Center in Santa Monica to say their last goodbyes. Farrah's long-term partner Ryan O'Neal - who recently revealed he has proposed to Farrah and she has accepted - was believed to be by her side, along with her close friend, actress Alana Stewart.

Maldev Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 wtf is anal cancer?eric What Is Anal Cancer? Normal Anatomy The anus is body's opening that leads into the lower end of the intestines. The anal canal is the tube that connects the lower part of the large intestine (rectum) to the outside of the body, allowing feces (stool) to pass out through the anus during a bowel movement. When digested food enters the large intestine (colon) from the small bowel, feces are formed as the colon absorbs water and liquid from the digested food. The feces is then stored in the rectum until it is passed through the anus as a bowel movement. The anal canal is about an inch and a half long. Its inner lining (called the mucosa) is made up of several different kinds of cells. Learning a little about these cells is helpful in understanding the kinds of cancer that develop in various parts of the anal canal. Glands and ducts (tubes leading from the glands) are found under the mucosa. These "anal glands" make mucus, which acts as a lubricating fluid. The anal canal is the tube that goes from the rectum to the anal margin (where the canal meets the outside skin at the anus). About midway down the anal canal is the dentate line, which is where most of the glands empty into the anus. Cells above the anal canal (in the rectum) are mainly shaped like tiny columns, while most of those in the upper anal canal just above the dentate line are shaped like cubes and are called transitional cells. This area is called the transitional zone. Below the dentate line are flat (squamous) cells. The anal margin (also called the anal verge) is lined by squamous cells that merge with the skin just outside the anus (called perianal skin). The anal canal is surrounded by a sphincter, which is a circular muscle that keeps feces from coming out until it is relaxed during a bowel movement. Anal Tumors Many types of tumors can develop in the anus. Some of these tumors are benign (non-cancerous). Others are cancerous, which means they can grow into and damage nearby tissues and can spread to other parts of the body. There are also some growths that start off as benign but over time can develop into cancer. These are called pre-cancerous conditions. This section discusses all of these types of abnormal growths. Benign (Non-cancerous) Anal Tumors Polyps: Polyps are small, bumpy, or mushroom-like growths that develop in the mucosa or just under it. There are several kinds, depending on their cause and location. inflammatory polyps arise because of inflammation from injury or infection. lymphoid polyps develop in lymph tissue (part of the immune system). Small nodules of lymph tissue are normally present under the anal inner lining. skin tags are benign growths of connective tissue that are covered by a layer of squamous cells. Skin tags are also called fibroepithelial polyps. Condylomas: Condylomas (also called warts) are growths that occur just outside the anus and in the lower anal canal below the dentate line. Occasionally condylomas can be found just above the dentate line. They are caused by infection with a human papilloma virus (HPV). People who have had condylomas are more likely to develop anal cancer (see next section, "Potentially Pre-cancerous Anal Conditions."). Other tumors: In rare cases, benign tumors can grow in other tissues of the anus. These include: adnexal tumors -- usually benign growths that start in hair follicles or sweat glands of the skin just outside of the anus. These tumors stay in the perianal skin area and do not grow into the anal region. leiomyomas -- develop from smooth muscle cells granular cell tumors -- develop from nerve cells and are composed of cells that contain lots of tiny spots (granules) hemangiomas -- start in the lining cells of blood vessels lipomas -- start from fat cells schwannomas -- develop from cells that cover nerves Potentially Pre-cancerous Anal Conditions Sometimes changes in the anal mucosa are harmless in their early stages but may later develop into a cancer. A common term for these potentially pre-cancerous conditions is dysplasia. Some warts, for example, contain areas of dysplasia that can develop into cancer. Dysplasia occurring in the anus is also known as anal intraepithelial neoplasia or AIN. Anal intraepithelial neoplasia is divided into low-grade and high-grade. Low-grade AIN is not likely to be harmful. But many doctors feel that high-grade AIN may eventually become cancer, and therefore advise that high-grade AIN be treated. Cancerous Anal Tumors Squamous cell carcinomas: Most anal cancers in the United States are squamous cell carcinomas. These tumors come from the squamous cells that line the anal margin and most of the anal canal. In its earliest stage, squamous cell carcinoma is known as carcinoma in situ, (pronounced "in SY-too"), or CIS. Another name for this condition is Bowen disease (also called Bowen's disease). The cancerous cells of CIS are limited to the inner lining; they have not spread into any other tissues. Cells of invasive squamous cell carcinomas have already spread beyond the inner lining (mucosa). Cloacogenic carcinomas (also called basaloid or transitional cell carcinomas) are sometimes listed as a subclass of squamous cell cancers. They develop in the transitional zone, also called the cloaca. While they look slightly different under the microscope, these cancers behave and are treated like other squamous cell carcinomas. Adenocarcinomas: A small number of anal cancers are known as adenocarcinomas, which develop in glands located under the anal mucosa that release their secretions into the anal canal. They can also start in apocrine glands (a type of sweat gland of the perianal skin). Most often they arise from the rectum and are treated as rectal carcinomas. For more information, see the American Cancer Society document, Colorectal Cancer. Paget disease (also called Paget's disease) is a type of apocrine gland carcinoma that spreads through the surface layer of the skin. Paget disease can affect skin anywhere in the body but most often affects skin of the perianal area, vulva, or breast. This condition should not be confused with Paget disease of the bone, which is a different disease. Basal cell carcinomas: Basal cell carcinomas are a type of skin cancer that can develop in the perianal skin. These tumors are much more common in areas of skin that are exposed to sun, such as the face and hands, and account for only a small number of anal cancers. For more information, see the American Cancer Society document, Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer. Malignant melanoma: This cancer develops from cells in the skin or anal lining that make the brown pigment called melanin. Only about 1% to 2% of anal cancers are melanomas. Melanomas are far more common on parts of the body that are exposed to sun. If melanomas are found at an early stage before they have invaded deeply into the skin or spread to lymph nodes, the outlook for long-term survival is very good. But most anal melanomas are found at a later stage because they are hard to see. For more information, see the American Cancer Society document, Melanoma Skin Cancer. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors: These are rare anal cancers that are much more commonly found in the stomach or small intestine. For more information, see the American Cancer Society document, Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
