Synchronous gastric cancer and adenomatous colorectal polyp in patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae-induced pyogenic liver abscess (KP-PLA) and bacteremia is a rare presentation. A 58-year-old man with a 6-month history of diabetes mellitus (DM) presented with febrile sensation and dull abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen. Subsequent to laboratory test results and abdominal computed tomography findings, KP-PLA with bacteremia was diagnosed. After intravenous antibiotic administration, his symptoms improved, and upper endoscopy and colonoscopy were performed to evaluate the cause of KP-PLA. Biopsy specimens of the prepyloric anterior wall revealed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Endoscopic mucosal resection of the colon revealed high-grade dysplasia. Early gastric cancer (EGC) and adenomatous colorectal polyps with high-grade dysplasia concomitant with KP-PLA and bacteremia were diagnosed in our patient who had DM. Intravenous antibiotic treatment for KP-PLA, subtotal gastrectomy for EGC, and colonoscopic mucosal resection for the colon polyp were performed. After 25 days of hospitalization, subtotal gastrectomy with adjacent lymph node dissection was performed. Follow-up ultrasound imaging showed resolution of the abscess 5 weeks post-antibiotic treatment, as well as no tumor metastasis. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy should be performed to evaluate gastric cancer in patients with PLA or bacteremia, accompanied with DM or an immunocompromised condition.

We underwent two surgical resection of synchronous primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and gastric adenocarcinoma after obtaining histologic comfirmation 74-years old male pateint was recieved esophagectomy & total gastrectomy with esophagojejunostomy and 59-years old man was recieved near total esophagectomy and total gastrectomy with esophagocolo-gejunostomy. Their was no postoperative complications. The hospital day was 15 and 21 days postoperatively. All of them started oral intake at 7 days postoperatively and possible soft diet soon. We conclude that total resection of esophagus and stomach is the recommendable methods for prolong the life of double primary cancer patients of esophagus and stomach. Also, the reconstruction of the esophagus with colon or jejunal transposition is one of the recommenable procedure for curative surgical resection of double primary cancer in esophagus and stomach. And we also wish to emphasize the importance of detailed preopertive gastric examination for detect of gastric lesion and of careful intraoperative inspection of the gastric mucosa in patients with esophageal cancer whose preoperative gastric examination provide inconclusive evidence due to the severe esophageal stenosis.

최근 저자들은 1987년부터 1988년까지 2년간 영남의대 부속병원 외과에서 수술 및 병리 조직학적으로 확진된 다발성 원발성 악성 종양 6예를 경험하였기에 이를 연령, 발생 빈도, 호발 장기, 유발 인자, 가족력 등을 분석함으로서 외과의에게 다발성 원발성 악성 종양에 대한 관심을 고조시키고자 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다. 1. 평균연령은 54.1세였으며 최저 38세부터 최고 67세였다. 2. 남자 3예, 여자 3예로 남녀비는 1:1이었으며 발생 빈도는 0.31%였다. 3. 호발 부위는 위암, 유방암, 대장암 순이었으며 이 중 1예는 초기 위암 및 초기 대장암이었으며 위암과 다발성 골수종을 동반한 예도 1예 있었다. 4. 면역 검사는 DNCB, CMI, T4/T8 ratio를 측정하였으나 현저하게 면역 저하된 경우는 없었다. 5. 가족력은 1예로서 17%였으며 위암이었다.
