Background: Majority of colorectal neoplasms are adenocarcinomas but there is a small percentage of tumors from other histological cell linesMethod: One thousand one hundred patients who were applied surgical treatment due to colorectal cancer at general surgical clinic between years of 2010-2020 were examined. Patients have been grouped as Diffuse large b cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (group1), Malignant melanoma (group2), Medullary carcinoma (group3), Neuroendocrine tumor (group4) and they were included in the study in this way. In the groups,clinicopathological data of patients and their survival periods have been compared. Results: Twenty patients are included in our study: Group 1 was composed of 5, Group 2 was composed of 4, Group 3 was composed of 3, and Group 4 was composed of 8 patients. Emergency application rate (60%) was higher in Group 1 (p: 0.004). A verage age was above 50 in 4 groups and there was no difference between groups (p:0,966).Tumor diameter was on average (cm)(8 vs 6,55 vs 5,4 vs 3,75 p:0,073) in the groups, The number of lymph nodes dissected were (13 vs 14.5 vs 19 vs 19 p:0.373) The number of metastatic lymph nodes were ( 0 vs 1.5 vs 0 vs 0.5 p:0.188). Survival was significantly shorter in the malignant melanoma group, the longest survival was in the neuroendocrine tumor group (15.625vs8.5vs20 vs 40.857 p:0.001)Conclusions: Although clinicopathological features and postoperative follow-up results were similar, there were differences in survival among patients. Maligant melanoma histopathological type had a worse prognosis than other tumors
