ABSTRACT
Cutaneous metastases from colon adenocarcinoma are rare, and are produced by different ways. We describe the case of a 49 year old woman with a
right hemicolectomy followed by chemotherapy for colon adenocarcinoma, presenting two years later with a verrucous tumor in ileostomy.
Histopathologic reveal a cutaneous metastasis from colon adenocarcinoma. We report this case because of the low frequency of cutaneous metastases
secondary to surgical seeding without visceral affection and until today without recurrence.
