A 29-year-old female who had an abdominal mass of abdomen was seen at the hospital. Barium enema radiography and colonoscopy showed a carcinoma (ulcerative lesion, advanced) of transverse colon and multiple polyps. Right hemicolectomy (D3 lymph node dissection) was carried out. Histopathologically,...

Summary:A 29-year-old female who had an abdominal mass of abdomen was seen at the hospital. Barium enema radiography and colonoscopy showed a carcinoma (ulcerative lesion, advanced) of transverse colon and multiple polyps. Right hemicolectomy (D3 lymph node dissection) was carried out. Histopathologically, the ulcerative lesion proved to be well differenciated adenocarcinoma with invasion to the serosa and paracolonic lymph node metastasis was found. Multiple sessile and pedunculated polyps were shown to be hyperplastic polyps and serrated adenomas. Genetic instability was investigated at 5 microsatellite loci, however replication error was not detected in neoplastic site, including serrated adenoma.
