    Abstract:
    Herein we report a rare case of prostatic invasion of rectal carcinoma in a patient with ulcerative colitis. Malignant transformation is a well-known complication of long-standing ulcerative colitis. Mucinous adenocarcinoma, with positive carcinoembryonic antigen and negative prostate-specific antigen, strongly suggested the rectal origin of the tumor.
