摘要

Background

Soft tissue metastases of solid tumors are rare events, especially for colorectal cancers.

Case presentation

We report herein the case of a 65-year-old Arab woman with soft tissue metastases (left arm, right scapula, and right axillary masses) of a colorectal cancer 4 years after the initial surgery. The patient was treated with folinic acid–fluorouracil–irinotecan and bevacizumab as first-line treatment. One year after completion of chemotherapy, the patient remained alive.

Conclusions

The key aim in reporting this case is to raise awareness among oncologists regarding potential unusual metastasis locations of colon adenocarcinoma such as skin and skeletal muscle.
