The purpose of this study was to describe the detection of a brain metastasis as the first sign of colorectal carcinoma, without any liver and/or lung involvement. This finding demonstrates primarily the need for regular central nervous system investigation in diagnosing colorectal cancer and secondly that further, more thorough research into the biomolecular events involved in metastases from colorectal cancer is warranted.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of bowel resection in a patient with obstructive colorectal endometriosis. The presentation will acquaint the physician with the signs and symptoms, evaluation, and surgical treatment of colorectal endometriosis. We emphasize that our findings strongly support an aggressive surgical approach with resection for all visible cases of colorectal endometriosis in women with advanced disease.
