摘要
Despite the prevalence of amoebiasis in many parts of the world, amoebomas are relatively uncommon. Amoebomas within the colorectum are indistinguishable from carcinomas either macroscopically or by barium enema examination and the presence of both conditions is much rarer still. Herein, we describe such a case and review the possible reasons for their coexistence.
