Abstract:
Melanoma metastases are rare in the colon. Its diagnosis is difficult because they do not usually produce symptoms. They can present through the endoscopic image of a non-pigmented polyp. This is the case of a 56-year-old woman diagnosed with melanoma metastasis through polypectomy of an unusual-looking polyp.
