“…[5]. Anecdotal reports have described colorectal cancers having metastasized to several other sites: testes [8]; penis [9]; vagina [10]; oral cavity [11,12], and but tocks [4]. The location in the arm reported here has been described by Herrera-Ornelas et al [13], in association with a pelvic recurrence of a rectal cancer and a vaginal mass.…”

“…Metastasis of colorectal carcinoma to the female genital tract is usually to the ovaries followed by the vagina and endometrium [8], knowing that the most common site for colorectal cancer metastasis is the liver [9]. Some of the suggested hypotheses for colorectal vaginal metastasis formation are; a) direct in ltration via the Pouch of Douglas, b) lymphovascular pathways, c) fallopian tubes pathway [7,10]. Whitelaw et al reported the rst case of metastatic adenocarcinoma to the lateral wall of the vagina and the urethra.…”

“…She was primarily treated with nitrogen mustard, followed by cobalt and radium mold therapy due to recurrence. The patient then developed an ileovaginal stula that necessitated surgical excision after which she was in remission [12]. A review done by Ng and Aly in 2013 reported that the majority of vaginal metastasis cases had vaginal bleeding, followed by discharge, staining, heaviness, and perianal discomfort.…”

Introduction: An isolated vaginal metastasis from a primary colorectal adenocarcinoma is extremely rare. Based on meticulous literature review, only seven cases were reported from 1956 – 2013. Case Presentation: We present a case of a 52-year-old female patient diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma, underwent low anterior resection of the primary tumor, and then was found to have an asymptomatic isolated vaginal metastasis that was completely excised. Conclusion: Isolated vaginal metastatic disease is one of the rarest entities in surgical oncology with only limited cases being reported in the literature. A diagnosis can be challenging if the metastatic lesion is small and asymptomatic even with the most advanced radiological assessment tools. A meticulous examination should be done pre-operatively in order to rule out such diagnosis.

“…Most of these metastases arise from the cervix, endometrium or ovary, although there have been case reports of metastasis from distant sites, such as the colon, kidney, breast and even the pancreas. (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12) We report a rare case of vaginal metastasis in a patient with previous gastric and rectal adenocarcinomas.…”
