Abstract

  In colorectal cancer the most common site of metastasis is liver (43%), followed by lung (21%) and peritoneum (5%) [1]. While non-regional lymphatic involvement in colon primary is an uncommon finding, metastatic mediastinal and supraclavicular lymph node without involvement of major intermediary organs like liver or lungs is extremely rare.
