Colon Carcinoma Metastasizing to Skin and Breast - Rare Metastasis Sites: A Case Report

Abstract

Colorectal cancer CRC is the third most common cancer in the world and second most common cause of cancer mortality after lung cancer. Metastasis to the regional lymph nodes are found in 40–70% of cases at the time of resection, with metastasis to more distant sites occurring most frequently in the liver, peritoneal cavity, and lung, followed by the adrenals, ovaries, and bone. it is a rare case for a CRC to metastasis to skin and breast and that indicates advanced disease. In this case we reported a 64-year-old female CRC patient presenting with cervical and intra abdominal lymph nodes metastase a short time after adjuvant chemotherapy treatment and subsequent developing breast and diffuse skin metastase at initial of new cure chemotherapy. Because of skin and breast metastase related to colorectal cancers are so rare we try to inform this case to literature
