Fig. 1.

Initial abdomen-pelvis CT and endoscopic findings. (A, B) No ab-normal findings are noted on abdo-men-pelvis CT (A, transverse view; B, coronal view). (C) About 10 mm sized, pedunculated polyp is observed on sigmoid colon and removed by endoscopic mucosal resection. (D) No ab-normal endoscopic findings are present on cecum.

Fig. 2.

Follow-up abdomen-pelvis CT findings. Irregular wall thickening and luminal narrowing of the cecum and ascending colon is seen along with multiple liver metastasis.

Fig. 3.

Follow-up endoscopic findings. (A) About 5 cm sized, Borrmann type 3 tumor is observed on ascending colon. (B) Because of the luminal narrowing, the scope could not be passed into the cecum.
