In this case report, we aimed to present a case of rectum cancer with endometrial metastasis which is rare in the literatüre.Case report:On October, 2014; a 62-year-old woman was admitted to outer clinic with a complaint of rectal bleeding. In the colonoscopy, an ulcerovegetan mass was detected and biopsied. Biopsy pathology was reported as adenocarcinoma and the patient underwent a low anterior resection due to diagnosis of rectal cancer. The adjuvant therapy of the patient was completed and the patient was transferred to our clinic for follow-up. After adjuvant therapy, PET/CT examination was performed due to the fact that the sizes of nodules showed 20% increase according to RECIST criteria by thoracic tomography performed three months intervals. In PET / CT, hipermetabolic foci were detected in nodular lesions in the lung and within the uterine corpus. The patient's lung tru-cut biopsy and biopsy of the endometrial cavity was reported adenocarcinoma.Conclusion:Approximately 20% of patients with CRC have distant metastasis at the time of diagnosis. In general, CRCs metastasize to regional lymph nodes, liver, lung, and less frequently to the bone, brain, and peritoneal cavity. The uterus, which is mostly composed of smooth muscle tissue, is rarely described as the metastatic region of extragenital cancers. Endometrium metastases of CRCs are cases in a limited number in the literature. We emphasize this case because of its rarity and beacuse of importance of differatial diagnosis of primary and metastatic tumors of the uterus.en10.5505/aot.2020.55822info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess[No Keywords]A Rare Case of Rectal Cancer With Endometrial Metastasis: A Case ReportArticle531151154
