A 60s female, who had undergone single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection for ascending colon cancer with pathological diagnosis of T3N1bM0, Stage Ⅲb, followed by adjuvant therapy with 8 courses CAPOX 2 years ago, had enhanced- computed tomography(CT)for follow-up and a 15-mm nodule near anastomotic site was found. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography(PET)CT revealed abnormal accumulation of 18F-FDG only to the lesion and diagnosis of"anastomotic recurrence"was made. We planned and safely performed resection of the anastomotic site and the nodule. The pathological diagnosis was fibromatosis-like tumor without evidence of recurrence, and margin was negative. Postoperative course was smooth and she was discharged on postoperative day 9. When we diagnose local recurrence, we need to keep it in mind that fibromatosis is one of the differential diagnoses, although its incidence rate is low.
