  • Title: Metastases from gastric adenocarcinoma presenting as multiple colonic polyps: report of a case.
    Author: Ogiwara H, Konno H, Kitayama Y, Kino I, Baba S.
    Journal: Surg Today; 1994; 24(5):473-5. PubMed ID: 7519912.
    Abstract:
    A 53-year-old woman presented with symptoms of weight loss, diarrhea, and melena. A barium enema with endoscopy revealed multiple colonic polyps which were shown histologically to be metastatic deposits of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. The primary tumor, a poorly differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma, had been resected 11 years earlier. This appears to be only the second published report of polypoid colonic metastases from gastric adenocarcinoma.
