Abstract
We report a 52-year-old man with left-sided ulcerative colitis for 5 years and pulmonary sarcoidosis diagnosed 3 years back. He presented with subcutaneous lipomatosis and a right iliac fossa mass, which was diagnosed histologically as appendiceal adenocarcinoma. He was treated with right hemicolectomy, followed by chemotherapy.
