Specimen type:Low anterior resection
Tumour site: Rectum
Tumour type: Adenocarcinoma NOS, microsatellite stable, variable differentiation including poorly differentiated areas
Tumour stage: pT3cN2aMx; stage IIIB
Completeness of excision: R0

Diagnosis:
1. Low anterior resection rectum:
- High grade adenocarcinoma NOS, 30x25mm, microsatellite stable
- Venous invasion, lymphatic permeation and perineural invasion present
Lymph nodes
- +4/16; metastatic carcinoma in four of sixteen nodes
- Apical node involved
- extranural satellite deposits x2.
TNM class AJCC Stage (7th) 
- pT3cN2aMX; stage IIIB; R0
2. Proximal donut - Benign colonic tissue
3. Distal  donut - Benign rectal tissue"/>
