Carcinosarcoma of the colon is rare. Seventeen cases have been reported in the English literature. Most cases occurred in the left side of the colon. Indeed, there is only one re-ported case of cecal carcinosarcoma. Carcinosarcoma has a tendency to distantly metastasize and shows dismal prog-nosis.
