ABSTRACT
Skin metastases from colorectal carcinoma are rare and signal advanced disease. We present a case of an 80-year-old male with a large skin metastatic focus in the lower abdomen, a year after resection of a colonic adenocarcinoma. The patient had already finished receiving his first cycle of chemotherapy shortly before the discovery of the abdominal nodules and at the same period a chest X-ray, revealed shadows at the base of the right lung.
RESUMO
Metástases cutáneas provocadas por carcinoma colorretal são raras e sinalizam doença avançada. Apresentamos o caso de um homem de 80 anos com um grande foco metastático na pele do baixo abdômen, um ano após a ressecção de um adenocarcinoma do cólon. O paciente já havia acabado de receber o seu primeiro ciclo de quimioterapia pouco antes da descoberta dos nódulos abdominais e, no mesmo período, um raio-X do tórax revelou sombras na base do pulmão direito.
