Colorectal Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma in a Young Pregnant Woman

Colorectal cancer during pregnancy is one of the less common neoplasms with an incidence of 0.8 in 100,000 pregnancies. Primary colonic signet ring cell carcinoma is a weird variety, characterized by a poor histologic differentiation, with a high morbidity-mortality rate. The case of a 24-year-old patient with a 22-week-old pregnancy and colorectal cancer stage IV in palliative state is presented, with a devastating result. Early diagnosis represents a challenge because of the presentation form and the histologic aggressiveness of this disease. We suggest that colorectal cancer during pregnancy must be treated by a multidisciplinary team.
