Multiple polypoid colonic metastases from rectal adenocarcinoma with signet ring cells features: a case report.

Here we present an unusual case of multiple colonic polypoid metastases of rectal adenocarcinoma. For SRCC that is prone to have disseminated micrometastases, colonic 'polyps' may be the early noticeable sign of undetectable and extensive tumor spread. Instead of surgical resection of 'the confined disease in colon', systemic treatment maybe a more appropriate choice.
