Abstract :
We report the case of a 63 year old man with
small cell carcinoma of rectum. He presented with
occasional rectal bleed, anal verge pain and generalized
weakness. Colonoscopy revealed an ulcerated growth in
proximal rectum. Endoscopic biopsy revealed poorly
differentiated carcinoma. Laparoscopic anterior
resection was done and histopathogical examination
along with IHC confirmed small cell carcinoma(SCC).
Colorectal SCC is a rare and aggressive tumor.
