Abstract

Although the colon is a known site for tumor metastasis, it is relatively uncommon. In particular, prostate cancer may spread to the colon via locoregional penetration in locally advanced tumors. This can be easily seen on flexible sigmoidoscopy as an infiltrative lesion. However, a tumor deposit from prostate cancer presenting as a subepithelial lesion within the colon has never previously been reported. Here, we present a case of a patient with known prostate cancer who was found to have sigmoid colon uptake off imaging that demonstrated metastatic prostate cancer after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy of the subepithelial lesion.

结肠癌上皮下病变伪装成转移性前列腺癌。

虽然结肠是已知的肿瘤转移部位，但它相对不常见。特别是，前列腺癌在局部晚期肿瘤中可能通过局部渗透扩散到结肠。在软性乙状结肠镜下可见浸润性病变。然而，前列腺癌的肿瘤沉积表现为结肠上皮下病变，以前从未报道过。在此，我们报告一例已知前列腺癌的患者，在超声内镜引导下对上皮下病变进行细针活检后，发现乙状结肠摄取成像显示转移性前列腺癌。
