Abstract
Mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma is a subtype of colorectal cancer (CRC). It is characterized by the presence of abundant extracellular mucin. This mucin accounts for at least 50% of the tumor volume. Incidence of Mucinous colorectal adenocarcinoma is 10%–20% of CRC patients and it occurs more commonly in young females. This case report describes a case of colovesical fistula due to mucinous adenocarcinoma of sigmoid colon.
