Abstract | RATIONALE:
Gastric cancer usually spread via blood circulation to liver, lung, bone, and kidney after recurrence, but it is extremely rare in clinical practice that gastric carcinoma metastasizes to the skin and colon without metastasis to common sites like liver or lung. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 57-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with altered bowel habit and hematochezia for 2 weeks. DIAGNOSES: INTERVENTIONS: OUTCOMES: LESSONS: Our case represents a rare condition that solitary cutaneous and colonic metastasis from gastric cancer can occur after surgical resection and systemic chemotherapy. Its unique clinicopathological features can extend our insights on gastric cancer, and it may provide clinicians with some positive clinical experience for identifying and treating this disease.
