20237 citationsOpen accessUniversity of Tunis El Manar

Abstract

Goblet cell adenocarcinomas (GCA) are infrequent neoplasms of the digestive system that exhibit both mucinous and neuroendocrine differentiation. They predominate in the appendix and rarely involve the colon. Herein, the authors report a case of GCA involving the ascending colon in a 60-year-old woman who presented with severe anemia.
