Received without fixative/in formalin, labeled _____ and "_____", is a ileocolectomy specimen including __ cm of terminal ileum, __ cm of cecum and ascending colon, __ x __ cm appendix, and __ x __ x __ cm portion of mesenteric fat. The margin circumferences are __ cm proximally and __ cm distally. The serosa is _____ (color, smooth, adhesion-covered, focally puckered/indurated __ cm from the _____ margin). There is a _____ (color, exophytic, ulcerated, polypoid, necrotic) mass measuring __ x __ cm in surface area and __ cm in height, located __ cm from the proximal/distal margin and __ cm from the ileocecal valve. It is __ cm from the ileocecal valve and __ cm from the nearest (proximal/distal) margin. It involves __% of the circumference, and there is/is not dilatation of the adjacent proximal bowel. It invades into/through the bowel wall and is/is not present in the pericolonic fat/inked external surface. In addition, there is a __ x __ x __ cm sessile/pedunculated _____ (color) polyp located __ cm proximal/distal to the mass. The uninvolved mucosa is _____. The appendix, which is uninvolved by the mass, has a _____ serosal surface and a patent lumen. Multiple _____ (color, consistency) lymph nodes are identified in the pericolonic fat, ranging from __ to __ cm in maximal dimension, and all located within 10 cm of the mass.
