Abstract

A 61-year-old man with synchronous triple cancer involving the esophagus, stomach and colon underwent attempted curative resection.
Surgical resection was performed for the thoracic esophageal cancer and gastric cancer, and the colon cancer was resected by endoscopic polypectomy.
The patient died of pleuritis cartinomatosa 120 days after surgery.
A total of 8 cases of synchronous triple cancer of the esophagus, stomach and colon have been reported in Japan, including 5 in which cancer resection was attempted and 1 in which the patient lived for longer than 1 year after resection.
