A case of synchronous multiple primary malignant neoplasm of the uterine cervix and endometrium / 대한산부인과학회지

Synchronous multiple primary neoplasm is defined as more than 2 cancers are independently developed in one individual and are diagnosed simultaneously or within 6 months interval. The most common form of synchronous multiple primary neoplasm of female reproductive tract is that of uterine endometrium and ovary. Synchronous multiple primary neoplasm involving uterine cervix and endometrium is rare. Recently we experienced a case of synchronous multiple primary malignant neoplasm of the uterine cervix and endometrium. We report this case with revewing of other literature.

Metachronous Tripple Primary Malignant Neoplasm

According to the development of new diagnostic techniques and the extension of aging population, the diagnosis of multiple primary malignant neoplasm has increased. We report a 76 years old man who had prostate cancer, colon cancer and stomach cancer metachronously and review literatures about the history, criteria, incidence and causes of the multiple primary malignant neoplasm.

Synchronous Multiple Primary Malignant Neoplasm Involving the Uterine Endometrium and Ovary / 대한산부인과학회잡지

Multiple primary malignant neoplasm means that more than 2 cancers are independently developed in one individual. In general, the neoplasms are diagnosed simultaneously or within 6 month interval. Simultaneous presentation of carcinomas involving ovary and uterus is not a common event and presents a diagnostic dilemma when they are of the same histology. We experienced a rare case of multiple primary malignant neoplasm involving the uterine endometrium and the ovary synchronously. Thus we report this case with a review of literatures.

Multiple Primary Malignant Neoplasm Combined with Musculoskeletal Malignancy / 대한정형외과학회잡지

From Jan. of 1990 to Dec. of 1992, we have experienced three cases of multiple primary malignant neoplasms originated from different histogenesis, in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery of Korea Cancer Center Hospital. Liposarcomas, malignant fibrous histiocytoma were combined with renal cell carcinoma, mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of ovary or prostatic cancer. With Moertel's classification, synchronous tumors were found in 2 cases and metachronous in 1 case. Synchronous tumors were 2 liposarcomas-renal cell carcinoma or mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of ovary. Metachronous tumors were malignant fibrous histiocytoma-prostate cancer. We couldn t find any family history among them. The causes of these multiple malignancies were considered as the individual predilrection to tumors.
