Right gluteal abscess: an unusual presentation of perforated caecal adenocarcinoma.

Shailesh K Mohandas¹, Felix Mazarello, Rob Bisset.

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Colonic cancer presenting as a remote abscess in the gluteal region, abdominal wall, retroperitoneal region, groin or thigh is rare. CASE REPORT: We report a case of advanced carcinoma of the caecum in an elderly lady without bowel symptoms presenting as right gluteal abscess. DISCUSSION: In the differential diagnosis of gluteal/ upper thigh abscess the rare possibility of colonic cancer perforation as a cause should be considered.
