OBJECTIVE: To report a case of an isolated pancreatic metastasis from a primary cecum carcinoma.
BACKGROUND: Carcinoma of the colon and rectum commonly metastasizes to distant sites such as liver, lung, bone, brain, and ovaries. Only a few cases of pancreatic metastasis from a primary colonic carcinoma had been reported. Metastasic lesions to the pancreas are found only in 3% to 12% of autopsies from advanced malignancies. Primary tumors that commonly metastasize to the pancreas are lung and kidney. Most of the patients with metastatic lesions to pancreas also had extrapancreatic metastatic disease.
CASE: We report a case of a 86-year-old woman with a single pancreatic metastasis from a primary cecum carcinoma resected 8 months before.
CONCLUSIONS: The finding of an isolated metastasis to the pancreatic body from a primary cecum adenocarcinoma is extremely rare.
