Abstract: The occurrence of synchronous primary neoplasms remains an issue of great interest to surgeons and oncologists in particular, and the medical field in general. The question of common genetic pathways in the pathogenesis of such neoplasms is always raised when such associations are seen—whether metachronously or synchronously. The possibility of the coexistence of multiple tumours in the same patient must be taken into consideration when preparing patients for operation and a thorough search of the intraperitoneal organs for such coexistence remains important. A case of synchronously resected caecal carcinoma, jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumour and renal cell carcinoma is presented here, along with a literature review on synchronous tumour resection.
