Abstract

Signet ring cell carcinoma is a subtype of adenocarcinoma and mainly originated from stomach. Terminal ileum involvement is uncommon and only 2 cases have been reported in the literature. We represent a case of signet ring cell carcinoma of the terminal ileum showing gross features mimicking Crohn’s disease in a patient with ankylosing spondylitis.
Keywords: signet ring cell carcinoma; terminal ileum; Crohn’s disease; ankylosing spondylitis signet ring cell carcinoma; terminal ileum; Crohn’s disease; ankylosing spondylitis
