Metastatic disease of colorectal carcinoma can be present at the time of initial diagnosis or develop along the course of the disease. The liver is the most common site of distant metastasis of colorectal carcinoma. Other sites that are frequently involved include lung, peritoneum and bone. Head and neck involvement is extremely rare. We report a case of a middle-aged lady who was treated for colorectal carcinoma presented with infratemporal fossa metastasis 3years after the diagnosis of rectal carcinoma.
