Abstract:
We describe the case of a patient who presented with stercoral perforation of the sigmoid colon in association with hypercalcaemia caused by a parathyroid adenoma. Colonic resection was followed by successful parathyroidectomy and resulted in a satisfactory outcome. This unusual association is discussed.
