@#Nowadays, the popularization of endoscopic technology makes a substantial increase in the diagnosis rate of esophageal multiple primary carcinoma. However, the multiple primary carcinoma combined with esophageal cancer, lung cancer and cardiac cancer is relatively rare. This paper reported a 64-year-old male with multiple primary cancer who received one-stage complex radical surgery, including radical resection of esophageal cancer, lung cancer and cardiac cancer. After the operation, the patient presented chylothorax and conservative treatment was ineffective. Then we preformed ligation of thoracic duct through single-portal thoracoscope. The patient recovered successfully after surgery and the follow-up results showed well.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT in detection of synchronous multiple primary carcinoma (MPC) before treatment. Methods: The pre-treatment whole body PET/CT images of seventy-two patients with synchronous MPC confirmed by postoperative and biopsy pathology were analyzed. The pathological results were used as gold standard, and the detection rates of tumor lesions by 18F-FDG PET/CT and plain CT were compared, and the metabolism of 18F-FDG in tumor lesion was analyzed. Results: There were 151 lesions confirmed by pathology in 72 patients with synchronous MPC. The detection rate of tumor lesions by 18F-FDG-PET/CT was 88.1% (133/151), which was significantly higher than that of integrated CT (78.8%, 119/151) (P < 0.05). In patients with first primary cancer in digestive tract and second primary cancer in lung, the maximal standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of first primary cancer in digestive tract was higher than that of second primary cancer in lung (P = 0.042). There was no significant difference in SUVmax between synchronous MPCs in digestive tract (P = 0.345), but there was significant difference in SUVmax between synchronous MPCs in lung (P = 0.046). There were differences in SUVmax among tumor tissue lesions (P < 0.001), and the SUVmax of digestive tract cancer was higher than that of lung cancer (P = 0.01). Conclusion: The whole body18F-FDG PET/CT imaging can effectively detect and diagnose the synchronous MPC.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To discuss the therapeutic effect of one stage surgical treatment in the multiple primary hypopharyngeal and cervical thoracic esophageal carcinoma.METHODS The thoracoscopy group: dissecting the esophagus and mediastinal lymph node assisted with thoracoscope, and then opened abdominal cavity to make gastric tube. Head and neck group: doing the cervical lymph node dissection, total laryngectomy, total hypopharyngectomy and total esophagectomy, and then anastomosis of the pharynx with gastric tube. All cases were received conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy after operation.RESULTS All the cases in this group were successfully underwent the one stage operation. The postoperative complications were pulmonary infection in 3 cases, pleural effusion in 2 cases and tracheal tear in one case. No anastomotic fistula or postoperative deaths occurred. The 3 and 5 year survival rates were 63.6% and 50.0% respectively.CONCLUSION It should take necessary examinations of cervical thoracic esophagus to prevent missing the multiple primary carcinoma of the hypopharyngeal carcinoma. The total laryngectomy, total hypopharyngectomy and total esophagectomy, and anastomosis of the pharynx with gastric tube for multiple primary hypopharyngeal and cervical thoracic esophageal carcinoma is a feasible and active treatment method.
ABSTRACT
The multiple primary carcinoma (MPC) is defined as more than 2 or up carcinomas occured with in same or multiple organs in an individual.Along with the science development and advancement of human society,the life-span of human being has been prolonged,and more of MPC are identified.But the misdiagnosis of MPC as the metastases of primary tumors or missed diagnosis will mislead therapeutic regimens and exacerbate the diseases.Therefore,the accurate differentiation of MPC is becoming increasingly important.This article mainly reviews the epidemiology,diagnostic criteria,etiology,frequent sites of involvement,classification,and diagnostic protocols of MPC.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of synchronous multiple primary esophageal carcinomas (SMPEC).Methods Clinical data including sex,age,smoking history,regions,lymph node status,length of tumor,therapeutic methods and survival data of 52 patients with SMPEC were analyzed.The rates of OS depending on the different factors were calculated using the method of Kaplan-Meier analysis.Log-rank test was used for univariate survival analysis and Cox's proportional hazards regression model was used for multivariate survival analysis.Results The 1-,3-,5-year OS rates and the median survival time (MST) were 65.4 ％,17.3 ％,7.7 ％ and 15.0 months for the whole cohort,75.0 ％,33.3 ％,16.7 ％ and 19.5 months for the surgery subgroup,62.5 ％,10.0 ％,5.0 ％ and 14.5 months for the 40 non-operative patients.Multivariate analysis of prognostic factors identified that tumor length and M stage were independent prognostic factors for the whole cohort,while tumor length,M stage and chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors for the radiotherapy subgroup patients.Conclusion The tumor length and M stage are independent prognostic factors for the SMPEC patients.Combined radiotherapy with chemotherapy seems to bring survival benefit and maybe a better management choice for unresectable and non-operative SMPEC.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features of multiple primary colorectal carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 30 patients with multiple primary colorectal carcinoma and 580 patients with single colorectal carcinoma who were admitted to the Peking University People's Hospital from January 2001 to March 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma and 14with multiple metachronous carcinoma. The survival of the patients was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method and the survival rates were compared using Log-rank test. All data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results The onset age of multiple metachronous primary carcinoma was younger than that of multiple synchronous carcinoma and single colorectal carcinoma, while the onset age of multiple metachronous secondary carcinoma was close to that of multiple synchronous carcinoma and single colorectal carcinoma. Most of the synchronous carcinoma located at the left colon; while most of the metachronous primary carcinoma located at the rectum and sigmoid colon, and most of the metachronous secondary carcinoma located at the ascending colon. Patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma or multiple metachronous primary carcinoma received radical resection. Of the 14 patients with multiple metachronous carcinoma, 9 received radical resection for secondary focus. Except for three patients with multiple synchronous carcinoma and two patients with multiple metachronous carcinoma, all patients received postoperative chemotherapy with FCF, FOLFOX or XELOX regimen. Of the 580 patients with single colorectal carcinoma, 512 received radical resection, 68 received palliative operation, and 519 received postoperative chemotherapy. The cumulative survival rate of patients with multiple metachronous primary carcinoma was significantly higher than that of single colorectal carcinoma (x2 = 17. 289, P ＜ 0. 05). There was no significant difference in the cumulative survival rate between patients with single colorectal carcinoma and those with multiple metachronous secondary carcinoma or multiple synchronous carcinoma (x2 = 1.731, 0. 800, P ＞ 0. 05). Conclusion The prognosis of patients with colorectal multiple metachronous carcinoma is better than those with single colorectal carcinoma, and the prognosis of colorectal synchronous carcinoma is similar to those with single colorectal carcinoma.
ABSTRACT
Objective to Present 56 cases of multiple primary cancers,to make improvement of diagnosis and treatment.methods A total of 58 patients with multiple primary cancers admitted from 2003 to 2007 were analysed retrospectively in Beijing Tongren Hospital.Results Thirty-five cases were males,with sex ratio of male and female 1.5:1.The median age at the onset of the first disease was 61.5 years (ranged from 27 to 86).The onset age of the two primary cancers was mainly centered around 50～75 years,while half of the second cancers occurred within five years.Conclusion the treatment and prognosis of the two primary cancers are different from that of the recurred and metastatic malignancies and shoule be handled with care.
