Isolated splenic metastasis: An unusual presentation of colonic adenocarcinoma
2019
It is very uncommon situation in which primary colonic carcinoma is asymptomatic and presents as isolated splenic metastasis. Involvement of spleen by secondary tumors is usually seen in disseminated spread of tumor. However, isolated splenic involvement by tumor metastasis is an infrequent event, except in cases of lymphoid origin malignancy where spleen is commonly involved. We hereby report a case of 50 years old man who presented with gradually increasing pain abdomen for 3 months. USG report showed splenomegaly indicating either splenic abscess or hemangioma.
