Abstract
We present a rare case of multiple colonic metastases from advanced gastric cancer presenting colon depressed‐type multiple early cancer (IIc)‐like configuration. The case was a 74‐year‐old man who presented with a symptom of abdominal fullness. Colonoscopy and barium enema study revealed multiple IIc‐like lesions, which were shown histologically to be metastatic deposits of signet ring cell carcinoma. He had synchronous gastric cancer, which histologically demonstrated moderate to poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with signet ring cell differentiation. In addition, he had concomitant multiple small bowel metastatic lesions. This appears to be the first published report of multiple IIc‐like colonic metastatic lesions from a gastric cancer.
