[Amelanotic melanoma of the rectum].
We report the very rare case of an amelanotic anorectal melanoma. Until now there are only three other well documented cases of that tumor-type reported in the literature. The course of disease is described from initial symptoms till 10 months after discharge from hospital and suggestions for staging, therapy and follow-up are made.
