Our case showed clinical features primarily because of adenocarcinoma of caecum and coexistence with other primary neoplasm, i.e., RCC that was diagnosed on CT scan of abdomen during workup staging. [omicsonline.org]

Lab workup and abdominal/chest radiographs demonstrated no significant findings. Given the good clinical condition of the patient, she was admitted to the Geriatric Unit to monitor her progress and complete further studies. [elsevier.es]

Investigations Colonoscopy (best), look for synchronous lesions - Alternative: air contrast barium enema (“apple core” lesion) + sigmoidoscopy If a patient is FOBT +ve, microcytic anemia or has a change in bowel habits, do colonoscopy Metastatic workup [slideshare.net]

In addition, every medical doctor should always try to perform thorough medical workup of his patients in order to avoid overlooking tiny, but sometimes crucial, aspects leading to diagnosis. [hindawi.com]

More importantly, the patient had a completely negative workup for primary colon cancer. Hence we feel that our case is most consistent with urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland showing a degree of enteric differentiation. [scielo.br]
