Cancer and lymphoedema. Lymphoedema may develop when a cancer blocks a lymph node or some lymph vessels. Or it can happen if you have treatment for cancer that removes or damages part of the lymphatic system. Surgery and radiotherapy to the lymph nodes can cause lymphoedema.n some types of cancer, doctors now do a test called a sentinel node biopsy. This can reduce the need to remove all the lymph nodes, which helps to reduce the risk of lymphoedema. The sentinel node is the first lymph node (or first few nodes) that fluid drains to from the area of the tumour.
A polyp is an extra piece of tissue that grows inside your body. Colonic polyps grow in the large intestine, or colon. Most polyps are not dangerous. However, some polyps may turn into cancer or already be cancer. To be safe, doctors remove polyps and test them. Polyps can be removed when a doctor examines the inside of the large intestine during a colonoscopy.
Tubular Adenoma Polyp. A tubular adenoma polyp is a type of colon polyp that may turn cancerous, as it grows bigger in size. This article will provide you with a brief overview about this type of colon polyp.uch developments increase the risk of cancer in tubular adenoma polyps. In short, the risk of colon cancer depends on the type of polyp to some extent only. The main factors that determine the chances of developing cancer, is the size of the polyp and the degree of abnormal cellular development (dysplasia).
