Metastasis from colorectal carcinoma occurs by either lymphatic or hematogenous spread. The most common sites of colorectal metastasis are the liver and lung. Involvement of the skin, muscles and bones are quite rare. The prognosis in such patients is usually poor. Herewith, we are reporting a case of colonic carcinoma who had cutaneous metastasis, muscular involvement and diffuse skeletal metastasis. At the end, she had brain metastasis, but liver and lung involvement was not observed till the end.

Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia is an uncommon lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma presenting with hyperviscocity and autoimmune phenomenon. Disease is characterized by bone marrow infiltration by lymphoplasmacytic cells and raised IgM. Bone marrow morphology and immunohistochemistry is important for diagnosis. Course is indolent and anemia and age are most important prognostic factors. Treatment options include alkylating agents, anti-purine anti-metabolites, which though not curative but offer valuable responses. Newer agents like Rituximab and autologous transplant are being tried.
