Resumo

The most common location of distant metastasis of endometrial adenocarcinoma is the lung, although sometimes it could appear soft tissue involvement. Short bowel syndrome can potentially cause serious electrolite changes that require a global management. Patient admitted for severe electrolyte changes secondary to a short bowel syndrome after an intestinal resection. Octreotide LAR was successfully used to control intestinal losses. During the outpatient follow up was detected two soft tissue masses in gluteal region compatible with tumour progression of an endometrial adenocarcinoma diagnosed 10 years before. The usefulness of octreotide to control chronic diarrhoea in short bowel syndrome and other diseases should be taken into account as an option for the management of these diseases. The presence of soft tissue masses in a patient with a history of endometrial adenocarcinoma should alert on the possibility of tumour progression at that level.
