ABSTRACT

A case of synchronous multiple primary tumors in a 63-year-old man is described. The tumors included a squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus and a mucinous adenacarcinoma of the stomach. As we could perform the curative resection of the tumors successfully, we report this case with review of literatures about the criteria, incidence, organ relationship and tumorogenesis of the multiple primary tumors.

Key words: Multiple primary tumors, Stomach, Esophagus
