Amoebiasis is an uncommon disease in developed countries. Its clinical presentation can be variable and non-specific, and the diagnosis can be easily overlooked. We report a case of colonic amoebic abscess mimicking advanced colonic cancer with acute intestinal obstruction and liver metastasis. The presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of amoebiasis are also reviewed.
