Background: Malakoplakia is a rare acquired chronic infectious granulomatous condition, that is characterized by the accumulation of large granular macrophages containing basophilic inclusion bodies in the cytoplasm termed Michaelis-Gutmann (MG) bodies. Malakoplakia most commonly involves the genitourinary system, and the second most commonly affected site is the gastrointestinal tract. Rectal malakoplakia is an unusual entity that is difficult to diagnose due to its diverse clinical manifestations and radiological findings that are similar to different diseases and advanced cancers.

- - A 61-year-old man experienced urinary and defecation issues for 4 months, leading to an abdominal contrast-enhanced CT that showed large rectal masses suspected to be cancerous and affecting nearby organs.

- - Further histopathological analysis identified the masses as malakoplakia, characterized by specific cells (von Hansemann cells) and unique structures known as Michaelis-Gutmann bodies.
