    Abstract:
    A 71-year-old woman who have been taking Sanshishi for 50 years until the age of 70 for dermatitis underwent colonoscopy( CS)to reveal the reason of abdominal pain. CS showed ascending colon tumor(AT)with major axis 3 cm and suspicious of the mesenteric phlebosclerosis. Although endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)was performed for AT, colon perforation due to colonic wall fibrosis was occurred and ESD was suspended. Therefore, surgical resection was planned. Intraoperative observations by laparoscopy showed that the color of colon serosa from the cecum to the splenic flexure was grayish white and colonic wall thickening with lead tubular change was observed. From the descending colon to the sigmoid colon, wall thickening was mild, and Haustra was confirmed. Although the tumor location was in the ascending colon, laparoscopic subtotal colectomy and functional end-to-end anastomosis of ileum and sigmoid colon was performed for safe intestinal anastomosis. For treat of colon cancer complicated mesenteric phlebosclerosis(MP), endoscopic resection is considered difficult due to fibrosis and extended resection of the colon may be required to reduce the risk of anastomotic leakage. Herein, we report our case and details of past reported literatures.
