Abstract
A 60-year-old male was admitted with melena. Colonoscopy revealed a I sp lesion in the posterior wall of the lower rectum and an SMT-like lesion immediately proximal to it. The serum CEA level was 128.5 ng/ml. Miles operation was performed. The I sp tumor was 25×20 mm in size and the SMT-like lesion was 60×40×30 mm in size. Histological examination of the resected specimen showed that the I sp lesion was a welldifferentiated adenocarcinoma in the mucosal layer, but showed the features of mucinous carcinoma in the submucosal layer. The lymph node metastasis in node number 251 measuring 60×40×30 mm in diameter was a mucinous carcinoma. The findings in this carcinoma with a high propensity for case suggest that mucinous carcinoma is a highly invasive metastasis.
