The average colon is about 1.5 m long. Lengths of the various parts are: * Anal canal: 5 cm * Rectum: 12 cm * Sigmoid colon: 40 cm * Descending colon: 15 cm * Transverse colon: 45 cm * Ascending colon: 25 cm The splenic flexure is thus at around 72 cm from the anal verge, and the hepatic flexure at around 117 cm.
In the human colon, 65 cm from the cecum would be approximately in the ascending colon or possibly the transverse colon, depending on individual anatomical variations. The ascending colon typically measures around 15-20 cm, while the transverse colon can measure about 20-40 cm. Therefore, 65 cm would likely place you near the junction of the transverse colon and the descending colon.
Sigmoid colon
the colon maximum lenght is 1194 cm Joymaker RN
ICD 9 CM Code V 76.51 - Malignant neoplasm (of) colon.
It would be near the descending colon in the left upper quadrant of humans.
Had a colonoscopy this week, and my doctor said that a 12mm colon polyp is considered medium size.
The sigmoid colon (pelvic colon; sigmoid flexure) forms a loop which averages about 40 cm.For more information see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_colon

cm
If hitting a growth spurt at 13 and already 166 cm then it is possibly that you can get to 175 cm. You should hit another growth spurt in a few months.
