Xanthogranulomatous inflammation (XGI) is a rare phenomenon and can involve any organ system. The involvement of colon is rarely described in the literature. We herein report a case of XGI in a 60 year-old male who presented with friable ulceroinfiltrative mass in colon. Right hemicolectomy was performed with clinical and radiological suspicion of malignancy. This is the first reported case of XGI in ascending colon with mucosal involvement.
