The colon is a very rare metastatic localization. Here we report a case of colonic metastases from gastric adenocarcinoma whose clinical presentation was suggestive of a de novo adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon. The authors discuss that in the presence of a previous history of gastric cancer, immunohistochemical analysis on endoscopic biopsies may help in the definition of a differential diagnosis. Furthermore, this rare metastatic localization might suggest a poor prognosis and a more accurate diagnostic work-up.
结肠是一种非常罕见的转移部位。在此,我们报告一例胃腺癌的结肠转移病例,其临床表现提示为升结肠原发性腺癌。作者讨论指出,对于有胃癌既往史的患者,内镜活检的免疫组化分析可能有助于鉴别诊断。此外,这种罕见的转移部位可能提示预后不良,需要更准确的诊断性检查。
