ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Multiple primary malignant neoplasms in a single patient have been well documented in the literature. The lesions can be limited to a single organ or involve multiple organ systems and can be synchronous or metachronous. AIM: Report of a new case. CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 63 year old women with a rectocolonic carcinoma; during surgery an ileal nodule was discovered also as liver metastasis. The final pathologic report on the specimen revealed an adenocarcinoma of the colon and a carcinoid tumor of the small bowel with liver metastasis. Tumoral association is relatively common for patients with small intetinal carcinoids. CONCLUSION: The association carcinoide of hail with primitive tumour not carcinoide is reported primarily with carcinomes of the digestive tract in particulary recto colics carcinoma.

Ulcerative colitis is a frequent chronic inflammatory boxel disease. Its cutaneous manifestation are varied. Some of them are frequent like pyoderma gangrenosum, erethema nodosum and oral ulceration. We report the case of an exceptional association of ulcerative colitis with lichen planus in a 40-year old woman with a 2 year history of ulcerative colitis, who had lesions on the buccal mucosa and the lower lip for which the diagnosis of lichen planus was made and confirmed histologically.
