Abstract

We experienced a rare case of double primary malignancies of the large bowel and stomach. A 61-year-old male presenting the symptoms of diarrea, soft and bloody stools visited our hospital. Colonoscopy and barium enema revealed a creeping tumor coexisting with a type 2 advanced cancer in the rectum. Screening UGI endoscopy showed a IIc lesion in the stomach. A pancreas tumor was also detected in the body of the pancreas by US and CT. As the result of these diagnosis surgical operation was performed. The pancreatic tumor was a solid cystic tumor, 1.5 cm in size. The lesion of the rectum was a tubulovillous adenoma partly with moderately differenciated adenocarcinoma of the depth ss. The lesion of the stomach was a IIc type moderately differenciated adenocarcinoma of the depth sm. As the colon creeping tumor has a tendency to coexist with the colon cancer of other portion or the cancer of other organ, the neccesarity of examination before operation keeping the disease of other organ into mind is suggested.
