Adenocarcinoma Of The Lung

Erythema gyratum repens (EGR) is a rare paraneoplastic skin condition characterized by the eruption of expanding, concentric, erythematous patches and plaques. The condition may precede a symptomatic appearance of internal malignancy, and therefore provides a unique opportunity to prevent additional morbidity and mortality secondary to undetectable cancer growth. We report the case of a 71-year-old female patient clinically diagnosed with EGR and subsequently diagnosed with otherwise asymptomatic adenocarcinoma of the lung.

Secondary Metastasis

Metastasis to the colon from another primary internal malignancy is an untypical and a seldom reported entity. Direct visualization during colonoscopy is considered the gold standard of diagnosis. Pathologic diagnosis with immunohistochemical staining is essential to differentiate primary colorectal malignancy from secondary metastasis to the colon. We, hereby, present a case of a 53-year-old female status-post resection of left-sided papillary serous ovarian neoplasm who presented 2 years later with a single rectosigmoid intraluminal ulcerative mass imitating a primary colon cancer. Biopsies of the mass were consistent with metastasis from her primary ovarian carcinoma. We believe this case is unique because of the rarity of ovarian cancer metastasizing to the colon intraluminally rather than through direct locoregional invasion. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of considering secondary metastasis in patients with previous history of another primary internal malignancy.
