+Right Colon, Terminal Ileum and Appendix, Right Hemicolectomy:
+	- Benign mucosal/submucosa scar in compatible with the polypectomy site, correlation recommended, see comment.
+	- Iatrogenic tattoo.
+	- Terminal ileum within normal limits.
+	- Appendix within normal limits.
+	- Twenty benign lymph nodes (0 positive/20).
+	- NEGATIVE for dysplasia and NEGATIVE for malignancy.
+Comment:
+The scar was submitted in total.  The location of the scar in relation to the tattoo is documented within the gross.
+It would be useful to confirm that the location of lesion (that prompted the resection) in relation to the tattoo, is the same as the relationship between scar and the tattoo.
