ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of multiple primary colorectal carcinoma (MPCC). Methods A retrospective analysis was made on 37 patients with MPCC admitted from 1974 to 1998. ResultsThe incidence of MPCC was 2 74%(37/1 348) with 15 cases being synchronous carcinoma (SC) and 22 cases diagnosed as metachronous carcinomas (MC). Most tumors were located in right colon and rectum. Twelve out of twenty-two (55%) of MC were diagnosed within 3 years from the primary operation and 41% (9/22) of MC occurred after 8 years. JP2Radical resections were performed in all patients except for 1 case. The 5 year survival rate of SC was 5/9 and that of MC after the first cancer or second cancer were 15/21 and 7/18, respectively. Conclusions The results indicated the importance of complete preoperative examination, careful intraoperative exploration and periodic postoperative surveillance. Early diagnosis and active radical resection can increase survival rate of MPCC.
