| Popis: |
Gastrointestinalstromal tumors are rare neoplasms and represent 0,1% to 3% of all gastrointestinal cancers. They are the most frequent mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract with a malignant potential and unpredictable behavior. The synchronous association with other primary gastrointestinal carcinoma has been rarely reported in the literature with increasing number in the last ten years. The associated Gastrointestinalstromal tumor is usually discovered incidentally during surgery for carcinoma. The limited number of these cases cannot confirm the existence of a common factor in tumorigenesis of these different tumors and other studies are needed to clarify the possible association. We report the first case in the literature of synchronous primary Gastrointestinalstromal tumors developed in small bowel diverticulum and mucinous adenocarcinoma of the colon. Key words: Synchronous, Gastrointestinalstromal tumors, Adenocarcinoma, Colon. |
