Abstract

A 67-year-old male was referred to our hospital for further investigation of fecal occult blood. We diagnosed him with rectal cancer with osseous metastasis. Chemo-and radiation therapy were administered following resection of the rectal cancer. There were no other lesions except for the osseous metastasis remaining after these interventions. The osseous lesion was then resected. There have no signs of recurrence for 1 year and 9 months since the last operation. We report a case of successful resection of osseous metastasis from rectal cancer.
