A rare case of metastatic myxofibrosarcoma to the right colon

Myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) is a common soft tissue sarcoma typically arising in the extremities of older adults. Metastatic spread usually involves the lungs, lymph nodes, or bone. We describe a rare case of metastatic MFS to the colon in a 76-year-old man, three years after surgical excision and radiation treatment for a left flank primary tumor. The patient presented with symptoms of obstipation and was found to have a 4 cm cecal mass confirmed by imaging and colonoscopy. Biopsy and surgical pathology confirmed metastatic MFS. A right colectomy was performed without complication. This case highlights an uncommon site of MFS metastasis and underscores the importance of long-term surveillance in high-grade tumors, including evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract when symptoms arise.
