The mucosal metastasis of adenocarcinomas located in colonic mucosa is not infrequent. We present a clinical report of a patient diagnosed with a gastric multifocal signet ring cell adenocarcinoma without any evidence of visceral dissemination with the exception of mucosal infiltration of signet ring cell adenocarcinoma in a colonic polyp and in the mucosa of previous colonic anastomosis. The histopathological study of suspect lesions in the colonic mucosa is necessary to correctly approach the treatment of these patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
