Abstract

A 68-year-old male developed bloody stool. Colonoscopic examination revealed a polypoid lesion in the bottom of the cecum, which was 6.1×4.5 cm in size. The biopsy specimen showed well differentiated adenocarcinoma. With a preoperative diagnosis of polypoid invasive cancer right hemicolectomy with lymph node dessection was performed. He has been uneventful after the operation. Histological examination revealed an intramucosal carcinoma of the cecum with appendiceal intussusception.
