Sarcomatoid carcinoma of colon is an extremely rare biphasic tumour with less than 50 reported cases in literature, either as Sarcomatoid carcinoma or carcinosarcoma. Here, we report a case of a 65 years old lady who presented with pain abdomen. On colonoscopy, a colonic mass was noted with intussusception. Right hemicolectomy was performed and the specimen was sent for histopathological examination. Following histopathology and immunohistochemistry, it was reported as Sarcomatoid carcinoma of Colon.
