Abstract
The occurrence of multiple primary malignancies in a single patient has been relatively rare. We report here the case of a 71-year-old man with three primary tumors of lung cancer, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and prostate cancer, and a preliminary study of the mechanisms by which multiple primary tumors develop at the genetic level. Because of the late stage of the patient's condition, large tumor burden, and poor physical status, the patient survived only a few months. In the case presented herein, cholangiocarcinoma, lung cancer, and prostate cancer were found simultaneously, and the pathogenic sites are not related. Whole-exome sequencing was performed on the pathological tissues to explore the mechanism that may underlie multiple primary cancers at the genetic level. Several gene mutations were found in this case. They involved cell proliferation, cell cycle regulation, genetic stability, metabolism, cell invasion, angiogenesis, cell apoptosis, and other pathways. It can be preliminarily inferred that the mechanism underlying multiple primary tumors is related to the abnormality of tumor-promoting and suppressing pathways.

Gastrointestinal cancer precursor risk and mortality in pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms: a nationwide cohort study. Scand J Gastroenterol 2024; 59:600-607. [PMID: 38351653 DOI: 10.1080/00365521.2024.2310162] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is a precursor of pancreatic cancer. While earlier research has shown a high prevalence of synchronous/metachronous extrapancreatic tumors in IPMN patients, these studies have often been small with retrospective data collection. The aim of the study was to examine absolute and relative risks of non-pancreatic gastrointestinal (GI) cancer precursors and mortality in histologically confirmed IPMN. METHODS Through the nationwide ESPRESSO histopathology cohort, we retrieved data on IPMN between 1965 and 2016. Each index case was matched to ≤5 general population controls. Through Cox regression, we estimated hazard ratios (HRs) for future GI cancer precursors and death. RESULTS A total of 117 patients with IPMN and 539 age- and sex-matched controls were included. Over a median of 2.1 years of follow up, we confirmed two (1.7%) incident GI cancer precursors in IPMN vs. four (0.7%) in controls, corresponding to an HR of 1.89 (95%CI = 0.34-10.55). By contrast, IPMN patients were at increased risk of death (HR 3.61 (95%CI = 1.79-7.27)). The most common cause of death in IPMN was pancreatic cancer (n = 14; 45.2% of all deaths). CONCLUSIONS We found no association between IPMN and other GI cancer precursors. This argues against comprehensive routine surveillance for other GI cancer precursors in IPMN patients. Mortality was increased in IPMN with pancreatic cancer being the most common cause of death, indicating the need for lifelong follow up in all resected and non-resected patients with IPMN. However, results should be confirmed in larger cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMTs) was first described by Billroth as early as 1889, with the first report published by Warren and Gates in 1932. Since then, numerous cases have been reported. A literature review of 1104269 patients with cancer revealed that the incidence of MPMTs ranged from 0.73 to 11.7%. In recent years, however, there has been a significant upward trend in the incidence of this phenomenon, which may be associated with many different factors, including the advancement of modern diagnostic procedures facilitating the examination and diagnosis of more MPMTs, increased exposure to chemotherapy and radiotherapy that exacerbate the risk of new malignant tumors in patients with cancer, and prolonged survival of patients with cancer allowing sufficient time for the development of new primary cancers. AIM To analyze the incidence, clinical features, treatment factors, prevalence, and prognosis of patients with MPMTs in the gastrointestinal tract treated in a single center. Additionally, we analyzed the different tumor combinations, time interval between the occurrence of tumors, and staging. METHODS This retrospective cohort study analyzed 8059 patients with pathologically confirmed gastrointestinal malignant tumors treated at the Gansu Province Hospital in Lanzhou, Gansu, China between June 2011 and June 2020. Of these, 85 patients had MPMTs. The clinical features, treatment factors, prevalence, and prognosis of this latter cohort were analyzed. RESULTS The incidence of MPMTs in patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumors was 1.05% (85/8059), including 83 double primary malignant tumors and two triple primary malignant tumors of which 57 (67.06%) were synchronous MPMTs (SMPMTs) and 28 (32.94%) were metachronous MPMTs (MMPMTs). The most frequent associations were found between the rectum colon cancers within the SMPMT category and the gastric-colon cancers within the MMPMT category. For the MMPMTs, the median interval was 53 months. The overall 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates from diagnosis of the first primary cancer were 91.36%, 65.41%, and 45.97%, respectively; those from diagnosis of the second primary cancer were 67.90%, 29.90%, and 17.37%, respectively. CONCLUSION MPMTs in the gastrointestinal tract have a high incidence and poor prognosis. Thus, it is necessary to perform both gastroscopy and colonoscopy in patients with gastrointestinal tumors. Multidisciplinary comprehensive diagnosis and treatment may improve the diagnosis rate and treatment efficiency of MPMTs.

Abstract
A 23-year-old female patient presented with radicular back pain, perineal numbness, and urinary retention. The patient was diagnosed with cauda equina syndrome and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine revealed an enhancing osseous lumbar lesion causing severe central stenosis. A core needle biopsy of the lumbar spine showed microscopic features compatible with a small round blue cell tumor. CD99 and FLI1 were positive in the tumor cells. Next-generation sequencing demonstrated a EWSR1::FLI1 fusion. Given these findings, the spine lesion was diagnosed as Ewing sarcoma. The patient underwent surgical decompression of L2. On further workup, an MRI revealed an ill-defined enhancing mass of the right distal femur. This area was biopsied, demonstrating a fibro-osseous lesion with osteoblast proliferation containing nuclear atypia, low mitotic activity, and SATB2 positivity, diagnosed as low-grade central osteosarcoma (LGCOS). The patient underwent resection, which showed a classic LGCOS by histomorphology. Although fluorescence in-situ hybridization study for MDM2 gene amplification was negative, the overall findings are most consistent with LGCOS. These neoplasms are considered to be synchronous due to the presentation of each entity within 6 months. Considering the aggregate yearly incidence of Ewing sarcoma (approximately 1 case per 750 000 per year) and LGCOS (approximately 1 case per 10 million per year), the aggregate yearly probability of developing both of these genetically unrelated tumors in a single individual is 1 per 7.5 trillion per year, and it is likely such an event has never happened in the past.

Abstract
This case report presents a rare and intriguing clinical scenario involving a 63-year-old male with recurrent left-sided hydroureteronephrosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia presenting with fatigue, dyspnea, and weight loss. Laboratory findings revealed anemia, basophilic stippling, spherocytosis, and nucleated red blood cells on the peripheral blood smear, raising concerns for hemolysis. Concomitant iron deficiency anemia led to further investigations, revealing gastritis and a colonic mass. A CT scan revealed splenomegaly with an accessory spleen. The histopathological evaluation identified splenic marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) - a diagnosis supported by flow cytometry. Simultaneously, the patient was found to have a moderately differentiated colorectal adenocarcinoma on colonoscopy. This unique case highlights a rare synchronous occurrence of invasive colonic adenocarcinoma with splenule MZL, an unprecedented finding in medical literature.

Abstract
Multiple primary malignant tumours (MPMTs) are multiple neoplasms with independent pathogenetic origins, placing great importance on the tumorigenesis and clinical treatment. However, due to the rare occurrence and diagnostic confusion, MPMTs have rarely been investigated in veterinary medicine. In this report, a 10-year-old intact female Maltese dog had MPMTs, consisting of two malignant tumours and one benign tumour each derived from a topographically different site: tubular carcinoma in the mammary glands, leiomyosarcoma in the uterus and sebaceous epithelioma in the cheek. The unique combination of MPMTs would be the first case in veterinary research to give insight into the diagnosis, disease characteristics, and surgical treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prognostic impact of initial lung cancer (LC) on second primary breast cancer after LC (LC-BC) and further develop a nomogram for predicting the survival of patients. METHODS All patients diagnosed with LC-BC and first primary BC (BC-1) during 2000-2017 were collected from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. Pathological features, treatment strategies and survival outcomes were compared between LC-BC and BC-1 before and after propensity score matching (PSM). Cox regression analysis was performed to identify the prognostic factors associated with LC in patients with LC-BC. Additionally, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis was used to select clinical characteristics for nomogram construction, which were subsequently evaluated using the concordance index (C-index), calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS 827 429 patients with BC-1 and 1445 patients with LC-BC were included in the analysis. Before and after PSM, patients with BC-1 had a better prognosis than individuals with LC-BC in terms of both overall survival (OS) and breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS). Furthermore, characteristics such as more regional lymph node dissection, earlier stage and the lack of chemotherapy and radiation for LC were found to have a stronger predictive influence on LC-BC. The C-index values (OS, 0.748; BCSS, 0.818), calibration curves and DCA consistently demonstrated excellent predictive accuracy of the nomogram. CONCLUSION In conclusion, patients with LC-BC have a poorer prognosis than those with BC-1, and LC traits can assist clinicians estimate survival of patients with LC-BC more accurately.

Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease, also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (SHML), is a rare subtype of reactive histiocytosis which is seldom associated with Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. To date, the coexistence in the same patient of extra nodal SHML and primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma (PCBCL) has been reported in the literature, as metachronous diagnosis in the anatomical area of the original PCBCL or synchronous occurrence in the same lesions. However, no data have been published as for synchronous occurrence of the two pathological entities in distinct anatomical sites. Herein, we report the first ever described synchronous occurrence of PCBCL and SHML, detected in distinct lesions, affecting the same patient. The complete resolution of the patient's PCBCL after rituximab treatment and the concomitant regression of SHML suggest that this clinically benign reactive histiocytic proliferation, potentially triggered by the lymphoma microenvironment itself, may take place not only in the site of the PCBCL lesion, but also in other distant areas not directly affected by the primary cutaneous lymphoma.

Abstract
Collision tumors, although rare, characterized by two distinctive (morphological, as well immunohistochemical) and spatially independent tumor components at the same location, are always puzzling for clinicians, pathologists, and patients because they do not fit into the usual approaches, being neither diagnostic nor therapeutic. Reviewing the specialized literature, to date, collision tumors have been reported in multiple locations such as the skin, esophagus, stomach, intestine, liver, kidney, bladder, adrenal gland, or thyroid. We report a case of coexistence at the same site of a malignant tumor of the ascending colon and a benign tumor emerging from the peritoneal lining, initially thought by the surgeon to be right-sided serosal carcinomatosis. But histopathological examination reveals that those multiple serosal nodules were benign granular cell tumors that have collided with highly aggressive transparietal signet-ring colon carcinoma. These results put the patient's prognosis and therapeutic strategy in a different light than the clinical and intraoperative evaluation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), often sporadic, arise from interstitial Cajal cells of the gastrointestinal tract or their stem cell-like precursors. Apart from tumor-associated syndromes, it has been reported that GISTs are also associated with other tumors. There is no clear information about the etiology of these synchronous tumors. In this study, we wanted to present the clinicopathological features of 13 cases diagnosed as synchronous GIST with other tumors. METHODS Demographic characteristics of the cases, risk of progressive disease score, tumor localization, size, and the mitotic activity of tumors along with survival status were evaluated. RESULTS Thirteen of 101 cases diagnosed with GIST had a primary tumor synchronous with GIST. Synchronous GISTs were located in the stomach and small intestine. Most of the cases were detected incidentally in the intraoperative and post-operative periods. Risk scores for progressive disease were categorized as low (n=1), very low (n=1), and no risk (n=11). Non-GIST tumors were located in the stomach, transverse colon, left colon, rectum, gallbladder, kidney, and retroperitoneal space. Histological tumor types were adenocarcinoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, mesothelioma, and neuroendocrine tumor. Life expectancy was found to be significantly lower in synchronous GISTs. CONCLUSION In cases operated for non-GIST tumors, the possibility of incidental detection of GIST should always be kept in mind.

Abstract
Since the popularization of cancer screening and an improvement in treatment over the last two decades, multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMNs) have been increasingly reported. We report a patient who developed metachronous MPMNs in the breast, the endometrium, and the pancreas over a period of 13 years. A 42-year-old woman was first diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent breast-conserving surgery with adjuvant radiation therapy and endocrine therapy. Four years after breast surgery, she was diagnosed with endometrial cancer and underwent a laparoscopic modified radical hysterectomy with bilateral oophorectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. However, there was peritoneal dissemination of endometrial cancer 1 year after surgery, which could be removed laparoscopically followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Ten years after breast cancer surgery, pleural metastasis of breast cancer was diagnosed and treated by endocrine therapy. Thirteen years after breast cancer surgery, a pancreatic tumor with multiple liver masses emerged. It was difficult to diagnose whether primary or metastasis cancer by the results of the pathological analysis. Finally, we diagnosed primary pancreatic cancer with liver metastasis by clinical examination with the BRCA2-pathogenic variant. These tumors were well responded to chemotherapy and the patient survived during a follow-up period of 8 months. According to MPMNs, breast cancer patients should be followed-up carefully for the possibility of BRCA pathogenic variant and development of different primary malignant neoplasms.

Abstract
Diagnosis and treatment of multiple primary malignancies are becoming a new challenge in clinical practice worldwide. The present study aimed to characterize the clinical and genetic features of multiple primary malignancies in patients with synchronous or metachronous lymphoma and another solid tumor. We retrospectively analyzed 11 cases with lymphoma and another solid tumor. The germline mutations in plasma cell-free DNA samples and somatic mutations in lymphoma and solid tumor tissue samples were identified using targeted next-generation sequencing. In the 11 lymphoma patients, the most common type of concurrent solid tumor was colon adenocarcinoma (case 3, 5, 9 11) followed by papillary thyroid carcinoma (case 1, 7, 10). Metachronous lymphoma and solid tumor in 6 patients were treated with corresponding standard therapy asynchronously. Chemotherapy for colon adenocarcinoma during the interval of lymphoma chemotherapy led to excellent outcome in two patients. Immediate chemotherapy for lymphoma plus elective surgery for synchronous papillary thyroid carcinoma also yielded good prognosis in two patients with synchronous double primaries. Interestingly, we found that 10 of 11 patients with lymphoma and another solid tumor harbored germline mutations in Fanconi anemia complementation group (FANC) genes, including FANCI, FANCA, FANCG, FANCL, FANCD1, FANCF, FANCJ, and FANCS. In summary, comprehensive study of the clinical and genetic features of patients with multiple primary malignancies may improve diagnosis and treatment in the future. Mutations in FANC genes might be a predisposition to tumorigenesis of lymphoma patients with a second solid malignancy.

Abstract
The most common malignancy in women is breast cancer, and the second one is colon cancer. Synchronous breast and colon cancers are rare. Here, we reported a 60-year-old woman with a left breast mass for six months. Biopsy revealed an invasive ductal carcinoma. She underwent 2-[Fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scan for evaluation of the extent of the disease. FDG PET/CT revealed an advanced left breast cancer with multiple metastases in both regional and distant lymph nodes (in left axilla level I/II, lower paratracheal region, and right lung hilum), bilateral lungs, and axial and proximal appendicular skeletons. An early staged synchronous colon cancer was detected incidentally on FDG PET/CT images. After endoscopic mucosal resection of colon cancer, she received palliative chemotherapy for breast cancer with a marked therapeutic response. The disease status of post-treated breast cancer remained relatively stationary for more than one year. Brain metastasis was noted afterward. Nevertheless, there was no evidence of colon cancer recurrence throughout her breast cancer disease course.

Abstract
This report presents a case of primary non-keratinizing, undifferentiated nasopharyngeal cancer and an oncocytic (Hurthle cell) thyroid carcinoma developing simultaneously. The patient was diagnosed in August 2022 with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. After the staging process and before starting treatment for the patient, he was diagnosed with oncocytic (Hurthle cell) thyroid carcinoma on October 2022. Synchronous primary head and neck malignancies are well-known in the medical field. However, this is a rare case of two primary tumors of mucosal and non-mucosal carcinomas, highlighting the importance of discussing head and neck malignant cases in the multidisciplinary team meeting and performing frequent imaging and endoscopic examination for suspicious cases, especially in elderly patients. This case report describes the cases, the management modalities, and the outcomes, informing clinicians of the importance of considering the possibility of multiple primary malignancies when evaluating patients with head and neck tumors and a better approach to this rare and challenging case to ensure successful management.

Abstract
The occurrence of more than one primary malignant tumor in a single patient is rare. Multiple primary malignancies can pose difficulties in differential diagnosis between primary tumors and metastasis. Here, we present a case report with multiple primary malignancies. The patient is a 45-year-old female who was diagnosed with cervical mixed squamous neuroendocrine adenocarcinoma, metastasized carcinosarcoma and extramammary vulvar Paget's disease. The patient was first diagnosed with a microinvasive squamous cervical carcinoma in situ. After a few months, the amputation of a small residual tumor and histological evaluation revealed an IA1-stage poorly differentiated (G3) mixed squamous and neuroendocrine cervical adenocarcinoma. After two years, the disease had progressed and biopsies from altered sites were taken. Histological diagnosis from an ulcerated vulvar region revealed extramammary vulvar Paget's disease. A biopsy from vagina polyp revealed an earlier diagnosed mixed squamous and neuroendocrine cervical adenocarcinoma. However, histological diagnosis from an inguinal lymph node biopsy was unexpected and revealed carcinosarcoma. It indicated either the development of another primary malignancy, or an unusual spread of metastasis. Clinical presentation as well as diagnostic and treatment challenges are discussed in this case report. This case report shows that multiple primary malignancy cases are difficult to manage both for clinicians and the patient because the therapeutic options can become limited. This complex case was managed by a multidisciplinary team.

Abstract
To investigate the clinical features, survival, and prognostic factors of patients with double primary malignant neoplasms (DPMNs) comprising non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and malignant solid tumors. Of the 2352 patients diagnosed with NHL, 105 (4.46%) patients were diagnosed with DPMNs, 42 (40.0%) had NHL first (the NHL-first group) and 63 (60.0%) had solid tumor first (the ST-first group). Females were more frequent in the ST-first group, and the interval time between the two tumors was longer. More NHLs in early stages and originating from extranodal sites were observed in the NHL-first group. Male, age ≥ 55 years at diagnosis of the first tumor, interval time <60 months, NHL diagnosed first, NHL arising from an extranodal site, DPMNs without breast cancer, and no surgery for the first primary tumor were associated with poorer overall survival (OS). Interval time <60 months and NHL diagnosed first were independent risk factors that affected the prognosis of patients with DPMNs. Therefore, careful monitoring and follow-up are especially important for these patients. 50.5% (53/105) of patients with DPMNs did not receive chemotherapy or radiotherapy prior to the diagnosis of the second tumor. We further compared the baseline characteristics of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL) patients with and without solid tumors, the former had a higher proportion of extranodal DLBCL, suggesting that extranodal DLBCL is more likely to develop solid tumors than nodal DLBCL.

BACKGROUND Multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMNs) are rare, while synchronous MPMNs (SMPMNs) are even less common. Owing to the progression of medical technology and the extension of life expectancy, its incidence is gradually increasing.
CASE SUMMARY Although reports of breast and thyroid dual cancers are common, cases of an additional diagnosis of kidney primary cancer within the same individual are rare.
CONCLUSION We present a case of simultaneous MPMN of three endocrine organs, reviewing the relevant literature to enhance our understanding of SMPMNs while emphasizing the increasingly important need for accurate diagnosis and multidisciplinary management whenever this challenging situation arises.

Abstract
The detection of multiple primary malignancies is on the rise despite their rare occurrence rate. This research aims to determine the prevalence, tumor association patterns, overall survival, and the correlation between survival time and independent factors in patients with triple primary malignancies. This single-center retrospective study included 117 patients with triple primary malignancies admitted to a tertiary cancer center between 1996 and 2021. The observed prevalence was 0.082%. The majority of patients (73%) were over the age of fifty at the first tumor diagnosis, and regardless of gender, the lowest median age occurred in the metachronous group. The most common tumor associations were found between genital-skin-breast, skin-skin-skin, digestive-genital-breast, and genital-breast-lung cancer. The male gender and being over the age of fifty at the first tumor diagnosis are associated with a higher risk of mortality. Compared with the metachronous group, patients with three synchronous tumors demonstrate a risk of mortality 6.5 times higher, whereas patients with one metachronous and two synchronous tumors demonstrate a risk of mortality three times higher. The likelihood of subsequent malignancies should always be considered throughout cancer patients' short- and long-term surveillance to ensure prompt tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) represents a considerable burden on cancer patients' survival and quality of life, but this burden varies based on the patient's baseline characteristics and cancer-related factors. Although solid evidence on the predictors and effect of VTE in cancer patients exists. AIM To evaluate VTE rate, morbidity, and mortality to develop parameters that could predict VTEs and their associated mortality in patients with multiple primary malignancies (MPMs). METHOD AND RESULTS This was a retrospective cohort study that took place at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Two hundred and forty-two patients with at least two biopsy-proven malignancies and had at least 3 months of follow-up after MPMs diagnosis were included. VTE was diagnosed in 14.5% of the cases, two-thirds of which were deep vein thrombosis. VTE was significantly associated with a higher mortality and worse survival. Predictors of VTE after MPMs diagnosis were a high ECOG performance status at MPMs diagnosis, a metastatic first primary malignancy, and ICU admission after MPMs diagnosis. Having a GI or hematological malignancy as the second primary malignancy, a high D-dimer at ICU admission, and palliative care referral were significantly associated with a higher mortality in patients who had VTE. CONCLUSION VTE was diagnosed in 14.5% of patients with MPMs and it significantly compromises their survival. We believe that these results might be of particular benefit since the phenomenon of MPMs is becoming more frequently encountered.

ABSTRACT Synchronous primary cancers are very rare. Due to their low incidence rate and insidious onset, they may be easily overlooked or misdiagnosed. In addition, there is currently no international consensus for their clinical diagnosis and treatment. Three exceedingly unusual synchronous primary malignancies, carcinoma gallbladder with renal cell carcinoma, carcinoma gallbladder with carcinoma colon, and carcinoma gallbladder with carcinoma breast, are presented here. Together with their clinical presentation, therapeutic options and outcomes are also presented. Curative radical surgery of each particular tumor, along with postoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy improves disease-free survival.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant neoplasms worldwide. Overall mortality is 33%. Synchronous colorectal cancer refers to more than one malignant tumor detected in different segments of the colon, simultaneously or within 6 months of initial diagnosis. The development of colorectal cancer is a multistep process that originates with a genetic mutation leading to a malignant phenotype and generating a growth advantage. Colorectal cancer presents up to 16% of hypermutations, of which 75% are characterized by microsatellite instability which in turn leads to poorer cell differentiation. Patients with synchronous tumors appear to have a higher proportion of microsatellite instability than patients with single tumors. The clinical case of a 35-year-old man with a perforated left colon tumor and a locally advanced synchronous tumor of the right colon and signs of acute abdomen is presented. The treatment should be based on the location of the synchronous tumors, stage at the time of approach, and the patient's condition. However, when faced with a complication secondary to colonic cancer, adhering to the principles of oncological surgery can be overcome by the nature of the emergency.

Abstract
BackgroundSynchronous multiple primary malignant neoplasms occurring at the same time (SMPMNS) are not currently uncommon in clinical oncological practice; however, the diagnostic performance of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) for SMPMNS needs further elucidation.PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the application of 18F-FDG PET/CT in patients with SMPMNS.Materials and methodsThe clinical and imaging data of 37 patients with SMPMNS who had undergone 18F-FDG PET/CT from October 2010 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The kappa consistency test was applied to evaluate the consistency of the diagnostic performance between PET/CT and conventional imaging (CI). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of PET/CT and CI in the detection of metastatic lesions were compared.ResultsThis retrospective diagnostic study included 74 lesions identified in 37 patients with SMPMNS, with 94.6% of patients having double primary tumors. Of the incidences of SMPMNS, 18.9% occurred in the same organ system, with respiratory tumors being the most common type of neoplasm (43.2%) and the lung being the most common primary site (40.5%). The overall survival of SMPMNS patients without metastases was longer than that of those with metastases (χ2 = 12.627, p = 0.000). The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), the SUVmax ratio (larger SUVmax/smaller SUVmax), and the difference index of SUVmax (DISUVmax) [(larger SUVmax − smaller SUVmax)/larger SUVmax] of the primary lesions ranged from 0.9 to 41.7 (average = 12.3 ± 7.9), from 0.3 to 26.7 (average = 4.4 ± 6.9), and from 0.0% to 96.3% (average = 50.3% ± 29.3%), respectively. With regard to diagnostic accuracy, PET/CT and CI showed poor consistency (κ = 0.096, p = 0.173). For the diagnosis of primary lesions (diagnosed and misdiagnosed), PET/CT and CI also showed poor consistency (κ = 0.277, p = 0.000), but the diagnostic performance of PET/CT was better than that of CI. In the diagnosis of metastases, the patient-based sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of PET/CT were 100.0%, 81.8%, and 89.2%, respectively, while those of CI were 73.3%, 100.0%, 89.2%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity values were significantly different, with PET/CT having higher sensitivity (p = 0.02) and CI showing higher specificity (p = 0.02).Conclusions18F-FDG PET/CT improves the diagnostic performance for SMPMNS and is a good imaging modality for patients with SMPMNS.

Abstract
Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a highly curable B cell lymphoproliferative neoplasm with a bimodal age distribution. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in both sexes. We present a rare case of synchronous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung and mixed cellularity HL of the nasopharynx. A gentleman in his 70s presented with right-sided chest pain and shortness of breath. CT of the chest showed a peripheral lung mass, and a biopsy confirmed SCC of the lung. The patient underwent a positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for staging that revealed an 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid mass in the nasopharynx. Flexible nasal endoscopy and biopsy of the nasopharyngeal mass revealed mixed cellularity classical HL. The patient was started on chemoimmunotherapy for lung cancer. Unfortunately, two months after initiation of treatment, the patient died from COVID-19 pneumonia and multiorgan failure.

Abstract
Background Synchronous multiple primary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (S-MPESCC) refers to more than one primary esophageal carcinoma detected in a solitary patient at the time of initial presentation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features, appropriate surgical approaches and long-term survival in patients with S-MPESCC by comparing with those with solitary esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC). Methods In total, 567 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma surgically resected in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2012 to December 2018 were screened for retrospective analysis (50 in the S-MPESCC group and 516 in the SESCC group). Results No significant difference was observed in terms of other characteristics except total alcohol consumption (P = 0.029). S-MPESCC had higher lymph node rate than SESCC (62.0% and 44.1%, respectively; P = 0.015) especially in upper mediastinal (32.0% and 18.6%, respectively; P = 0.023) and abdominal (38.0% and 22.8%, respectively; P = 0.017) regions. The survival was not different between the two groups, and the 5-year survival rates of S-MPESCC and SESCC were 46.2% and 50.8%, respectively (P = 0.507). But for patients with pT3-4 cancers, the survival in S-MPESCC was worse than that in SESCC (P = 0.033). In the multivariate analysis, pT stage of primary cancer was an important independent predictor of prognosis in patients with S-MPESCC (hazard ratio [HR], 3.968; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.031 to 15.268; P = 0.045). Conclusions S-MPESCC was significantly different from SESCC in terms of clinicopathological characteristics include alcohol intake and pattern of lymphatic metastasis. Furthermore, S-MPESCC showed worse long-term survival than SESCC with increasing depth of primary cancer infiltration.

Abstract
Aim
This study was designed to evaluate the frequency of developing second and subsequent primary cancers among cancer survivors.
Methods
We have retrospectively analyzed 121 multiple primary cancer patients treated at Bhagwan Mahavir Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, Jaipur, Rajasthan, India from the last 20 years. The survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier methodology.
Results
The prevalence of multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMTs) was 1.51% (121/8000), with a male to female ratio of 1:1.42. In males most of the reported MPMTs were synchronous and most common first primary cancer cases were head & neck and lung whereas, in females most of the reported MPMTs were metachronous and most common first primary cancer cases were breast and gynaecological malignancies. Family history was reported in 15 cases. Maximum 33.05% patients received combined treatment of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and 91.73% (111/121) of patients with MPMTs were effectively followed up, 35 (28.92%) patients died and 5-year survival rate of the remaining 86 patients was 68.46%.
Conclusions
In the present observational study the most frequent sites of MPMTs in men were head & neck and lung whereas, in women breast and gynaecological sites were common. Therefore, careful monitoring and follow up are required for these patients.

Abstract
With microtrauma becoming a consensus, in order to improve surgical treatment capability, the clinical application of laparoscopic multiorgan resection is becoming more and more complicated and diversified. Recently, we successfully presented a case of transvaginal specimen extraction surgery that included laparoscopic anatomical left hemihepatectomy combined with laparoscopic total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy and the pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. The patient, a 75-year-old woman, was hospitalized with abnormal vaginal discharge and bleeding. The pathologic diagnosis of uterine curettage was endometrioid adenocarcinoma. After completing examinations such as color Doppler ultrasound, CEUS, MRCP and thoracoabdominal enhanced spiral CT, preoperative diagnosis was considered as endometrial cancer and a space-occupying lesion in the liver (primary or secondary site)?. No lymphatic or distant metastasis had been found. We also excluded Lynch syndrome by digestive endoscopy and gene sequencing. After a multidisciplinary consultation, the patient underwent surgery under general anesthesia on 24 September 2021. The operation was completed uneventfully in 6 hours, then the patient was transferred to the ICU for follow-up monitoring. The patient began to eat and was able to leave bed on the 4th postoperative day. According to immunohistochemistry, the patient's postoperative diagnosis was intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and endometrial cancer. Compared with open surgery, laparoscopic multiorgan resection with natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES) has many advantages such as fewer traumas, shorter recovery time, and better postoperative quality of life. However, combined large-scale laparoscopic surgeries of different organs can be challenging for surgeons and anesthesiologists. No similar cases have been searched.

Multifocal organoids reveal clonal associations between synchronous intestinal tumors with pervasive heterogeneous drug responses. NPJ Genom Med 2022; 7:42.

Abstract
Multifocal colorectal cancer (CRC) comprises both clonally independent primary tumors caused by inherited predisposition and clonally related tumors mainly due to intraluminal spreading along an intact basement membrane. The distinction between these multifocal CRCs is essential because therapeutic strategies vary according to the clonal association of multiple tumor masses. Here, we report one unique case of synchronous intestinal cancer (SIC) with tumors occurring along the entire bowel tract, including the small intestine. We established six patient-derived organoids (PDOs), and patient-derived cell lines (PDCs) from each site of the SIC, which were subjected to extensive genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic sequencing. We also estimated the drug responses of each multifocal SIC to 25 clinically relevant therapeutic compounds to validate how the clinically actionable alternations between SICs were associated with drug sensitivity. Our data demonstrated distinct clonal associations across different organs, which were consistently supported by multi-omics analysis, as well as the accordant responses to various therapeutic compounds. Our results indicated the imminent drawback of a single tumor-based diagnosis of multifocal CRC and suggested the necessity of an in-depth molecular analysis of all tumor regions to avoid unexpected resistance to the currently available targeted therapies.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Cancer survival has improved significantly, which reflects the achievements in screening, diagnosis, and treatment. As a consequence, multiple primary malignancies are diagnosed more frequently, with an incidence ranging from 0.52–11.7%. The types of malignancy that coexist and survival patterns vary notably in different countries and geographical areas. Due to the limited literature in Saudi Arabia, a baseline of prevalent malignancy combinations and their survival patterns would support early detection and disease management. Method: This was a retrospective descriptive study conducted from 1993–2022 at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Department of Medical Oncology, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Patients with at least two biopsy-proven solid malignancies were included. Patients with hematological malignancies, missing data, or an uncertain or indecisive pathology report were excluded. Result: In total, 321 patients were analyzed. More than half (57.3%) of the patients were female. A third (33%) of the cases were synchronous, and 67% were metachronous. The most frequent site of the first primary malignancy was breast cancer, followed by colorectal, skin, and thyroid cancers. The most frequent site of the second primary malignancy was colorectal cancer, followed by thyroid, breast, and liver cancers. Only 4% of the cases had a third primary malignancy, with colorectal and appendiceal cancers being the most frequent. The most frequently observed histopathology in the synchronous and metachronous malignancies was adenocarcinoma. Breast–colorectal, breast–thyroid, and kidney–colorectal were the most frequently observed malignancy combinations. Conclusion: The current study offers a baseline of multiple primary malignancies in Saudi Arabia and provides supporting evidence that the pattern of multiple primary malignancies varies among different countries and ethnicities. The possibility of developing another primary malignancy should be considered when treating and monitoring cancer patients.

Abstract
Background As public awareness of health has increased and diagnostic and treatment options have improved, the survival of patients with malignant tumors has continued to extend, and the population has been aging, the number of multiple primary malignant neoplasms has gradually increased in recent years. There are few reports concerning female patients with multiple primary malignant neoplasms of breast cancer or genitalia malignancies. In this study, we aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of multiple primary malignant neoplasms in female patients with breast cancer or genitalia malignancies, as well as further explore the factors that affect the survival. Methods We collected clinical data on 80 female patients diagnosed with multiple primary malignant neoplasms of the breast or genitalia, described their clinical features. Furthermore, we calculated the survival and prognostic factors for 52 participants. Results In our study, the prevalence rate of multiple primary malignant neoplasms was 0.66% (367/55404). Corresponding to female patients with multiple primary malignant neoplasms of breast cancer or genitalia malignancies, it was 1.4% (80/5707). the median age of diagnosis for the first tumor was 48 years, and the median age of diagnosis for the second tumor was 52 years. Regarding the interval, 67.57% (50/74) of patients were within five years. Most tumors were located in the breast (44.68%), followed by the uterus (20.21%), the ovary (17.02%), and the cervix (15.96%). The overall 12-, 36-and 60-month survival rates of the patients were 86.4%, 74.3%, and 69.8%. For the female patients, the stage (III-IV) (P = 0.046), non-radical surgery (P = 0.002), and types of the last tumor (breast cancer or genitalia malignancies) (P = 0.019) were associated with the poor prognosis. Conclusions Female patients with breast cancer or genital malignancies should pay attention to screening for the second tumor, especially within 4 years after the first tumor diagnosed. Furthermore, during tumor screening, it may be recommended for these patients to focus on colorectal cancer and lung cancer. Compared with previous studies, in addition to clinical staging and types of surgery, we found whether the last tumor was breast cancer or genitalia malignancies should also be considered a prognostic factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs) refer to more than one primary malignancy in the same or separate organs of the same patient, and MPMs are considered when different histological characteristics are detected in epidemiological studies. Herein, we report a case presumed to be primary pancreatic cancer with multiple liver metastases by positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and confirmed to be synchronous liver and pancreatic MPMs by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA).
CASE SUMMARY A 50-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to abdominal discomfort for 2 mo. Abdominal CT at a local hospital revealed a pancreatic mass with multiple liver nodules. After being transferred to our hospital, PET/CT confirmed all these lesions to have elevated metabolic activity, and therefore primary pancreatic cancer with multiple liver metastases was considered. EUS-guided liver aspiration unexpectedly found signet-ring cells with a high Ki-67 positive rate (20%), while EUS-guided pancreatic aspiration detected pancreatic neuroendocrine cells with a relatively low Ki-67 positive rate (1%). The final diagnosis from the multidisciplinary team was simultaneous liver and pancreatic MPMs. The patient returned to his local hospital for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery, and he is still alive during the 6-mo postoperative follow-up.
CONCLUSION Although rare, MPMs should be considered when treating pancreatic mass with suspected metastatic lesions, and EUS-FNA has proved minimally invasive and accurate.

Abstract
Multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMTs) are two or more separate malignancies found at different sites concurrently. Prior studies have shown that the most common tumor associations in MPMTs are typically between two tumors in the digestive system. We present a case of a male patient in his 60s who initially presented with melena and was found to have a clean-based gastric ulcer on initial endoscopic evaluation. Repeat endoscopy on later admission revealed persistent ulceration. Biopsy showed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) positive lymphoepithelioma-like gastric carcinoma (LELGC), a rare gastric malignancy. The patient underwent endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) for assessment of tumor depth and involvement of perigastric lymph nodes, but was incidentally found to have a liver lesion. Biopsy of the liver lesion was positive for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with no morphologic similarity to the gastric malignancy. This case highlights a rare finding of MPMTs. In addition to the diagnosis of a rare gastric malignancy, the patient developed a well-known but uncommon phenomenon of non-cirrhotic HCC associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Due to an increasing number of advances in cancer therapy that are leading to increased survival times, clinicians can expect for a patient to develop MPMTs in their lifetime. A high index of suspicion must exist for the possibility of MPMTs because treatment options and outcomes can be vastly affected by their findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple primary malignancies of breast cancer and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are rare. Here, we report a case of advanced breast cancer and DLBCL managed with multidisciplinary therapy preceded by surgery with a successful outcome. CASE PRESENTATION During a medical examination, a 71-year-old woman was diagnosed with a right breast mass, enlarged lymph nodes throughout the body, and a splenic tumor. The results of the clinical examination and imaging were suggestive of widely spread breast cancer with lymph node metastasis and malignant lymphoma with systemic metastasis. The histological evaluation of the biopsied breast tissue revealed human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, whereas the histological evaluation of the excised inguinal lymph node revealed DLBCL. 18F-FDG PET/computed tomography was performed, and it was determined that both breast cancer and DLBCL were in an advanced stage. Thus, mastectomy was performed, and the axillary lymph nodes showed mixed metastasis of breast cancer and DLBCL. Soon after, the R-CHOP therapy was initiated (375-mg/m2 rituximab, 2-mg/m2 vincristine, 50-mg/m2 doxorubicin, 750-mg/m2 cyclophosphamide, and 125-mg methylprednisolone). After irradiation of the spleen, trastuzumab was administered for 1 year. CONCLUSIONS We experienced a case of combined breast cancer and DLBCL, which was difficult to treat because both were in advanced stages. Thorough staging of the malignancy and discussion by a multidisciplinary team are necessary to determine the optimal treatment strategy.

Secondary Oral Cancer after Systemic Treatment of Hematological Malignancies and Oral GVHD: A Systematic Review. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14092175. [PMID: 35565303 PMCID: PMC9102759 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14092175] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The number of hematopoietic cells transplantations is increasing annually, and the average survival time after treatment is gradually extending. As a result, these patients experience late side effects of hematological treatment, including secondary oral cancer. The oral cavity is relatively easily accessible for examination; therefore, every physician should be familiar with different pathologies of this area and, when necessary, refer patients to an ENT specialist for examination. In this review, the authors tried to identify a potential correlation between the oral chronic form of graft-versus-host disease and oral cancer in patients after hematopoietic cell transplantation, and they tried to propose a surveillance protocol and tips that can be used during a patient’s follow-up. Abstract (1) Purpose: In this article, the authors decided to systematically review the available literature to identify potential correlations regarding secondary oral carcinoma occurring after hematological systemic treatment and oral chronic graft-versus-host disease. (2) Methods: Medline (PubMed) and Scopus (Elsevier) databases were searched, including articles from the years 2002–2022. The 33 unique results were assessed by a PRISMA flowchart, and we rejected 24 papers and included 9 articles in the review. (3) Results: The majority of patients suffered from the oral form of chronic graft-versus-host disease before the diagnosis of oral malignancy. Two common cancer sites were the tongue and buccal mucosa. The exact percentage of secondary oral carcinoma after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation could not be estimated due to a lack of data. (4) Conclusions: Every physician taking part in the follow-up of patients after hematological treatment should be aware of the possibility of secondary neoplastic disease in the oral cavity, especially in patients with oral graft-versus-host disease. Proper follow-up protocols and monitoring are needed in this patient group as the cause of these cancers appears to be multifactorial.

Abstract
Multiple primary malignancies in general and synchronous cancers, in particular, are relatively rare but have increased in recent decades. We report a case of a 62-year-old Vietnamese male who visited our hospital with the chief symptom was mild dysphagia. An irregular lesion causing the total luminal obstruction was detected at the low third part of the esophagus via endoscopy and two suspicious nodules in the segment V of the liver were incidentally encountered through the Computed tomography (CT). Multiple biopsies from the lesions were then performed. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry results demonstrated Squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus and Hepatocellular carcinoma of the liver, which verified the existence of synchronous cancers in the patient.

Abstract
Considering that the incidence of colorectal (CRC) and prostatic cancer (PC) increases with age, metachronous and synchronous tumors can often affect the same patient. Despite the importance of this subject for the diagnosis and management of oncologic patients, in medical literature the data are scarce. The aim of the study was to evaluate the incidence and the characteristics of double/multiple primary malignant tumors (D/MPMTs) with colorectal and prostatic origin, in patients admitted to a reference hospital in West Romania. A 4-year retrospective observational study (2016–2019) was conducted by analyzing the medical records of all patients admitted in the hospital. Demographic and clinical data, as well as tumor-related parameters, were extracted. We identified 413 consecutive hospitalized patients with PC, and 21 (5%) of them also had a primary CRC. At the time of diagnosis, the mean age of the patients with PC was 71.2 ± 6 years, and 71.8 ± 10 years for patients with CRC. Synchronous PC and CRC tumors were identified in 3/21 cases and metachronous tumors in 18/21 cases. Prostate cancer was the first tumor to be diagnosed in 13/18 cases and CRC in 5/18 cases. The most frequent subtype of PC was acinar adenocarcinoma (90%) and for CRC cases, conventional adenocarcinoma (90%). Prostate and colorectal cancers tend to co-occur in a single patient. The diagnosis of one of these two types of tumors should imply the screening for the other one, because these patients require a multidisciplinary and personalized approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple primary cancer refers to more than one synchronous or sequential cancer in the same individual. Multiple primary cancer always presents as solid cancer or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) secondary to lymphoma. Here, we report a rare case of secondary peripheral T-cell lymphoma and AML after Burkitt lymphoma treatment.
CASE SUMMARY A 54-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital complaining of edema on her left lower limb. Physical examination revealed multiple superficial lymphadenectasis on her neck and pelvis. Color ultrasonography examination showed multiple uterine fibroids and a solid mass at the lower left side of the abdomen. Pathological biopsy revealed Burkitt lymphoma. After three hyper-CVAD (A + B) regimens, she achieved complete remission. Two years later, lymphadenectasis reoccurred. A relevant biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, which was accompanied by gastrointestinal invasion and hemocytopenia. Meanwhile, bone marrow examination revealed AML. On the second day of scheduled treatment, she developed gastrointestinal bleeding, peptic ulcers, and hemorrhagic shock and was critically ill. She was then discharged from the hospital due to financial concerns.
CONCLUSION This is the first report of secondary peripheral T-cell lymphoma and AML after Burkitt lymphoma treatment with heterochronous and synchronal multiple primary cancers.

Abstract
The phenomenon of multiple primary malignant tumors (MPMT) is characterized by the presence of several primary neoplasms in the same patient. An experimental model of MPMT with one dominating tumor was developed. Female BALB/c nude mice received simultaneous subcutaneous inoculation of Guerin's carcinoma (5×105 tumor cells in 0.5 ml saline) and B16/F10 melanoma (0.5 ml suspension diluted 1:20 with saline). Control females received transplantation of either melanoma or carcinoma alone in the same doses and volumes. In animals with MPMT model, tumors appeared 3-fold faster than after isolated transplantation of melanoma or Guerin's carcinoma and were larger by 7.5 and 2.2 times, respectively; the survival of mice with MPMT was lower. Guerin's carcinoma in the MPMT model metastasized to melanoma and almost completely suppressed its growth. Thus, a MPMT model was created with carcinoma suppressing the malignant growth of melanoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Light chain (AL) amyloidosis and B-cell lymphoma represent 5% to 7% of all AL, Systemic amyloidosis, deposits in sites remote from the underlying lymphoma, and peritumoral amyloidosis deposition is within the immediate vicinity. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospectively study to identify and describe AL with B cell lymphoma at Princess Margaret Cancer Center from 01 January 1997 to 31 July 2019. RESULTS Thirty-five patients with AL and lymphoma, an incidence of 6, 2%, median age of diagnosis of 66 (range 47 to 86), majority male, most had underlying Waldestrom's Macroglobulinemia. 21 patients with peritumoral AL (PAL), and 15 with systemic AL. 42.8% of the patients had major organ involvement. 35% got treatment with Rituximab with alkylator, 20% received proteasome inhibitors, 17% patients were on a watch and wait approach, amyloid response showed very good partial response > 45.8%, and lymphoma ORR was 42.8%, with a median follow up of 31.5 months. A 36 month overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) showed worse outcomes for heart involvement OS (P = .002), PFS (0.057) and IgM subtype OS (P = .02), PFS (0.01). CONCLUSION We have shown adverse outcome with IgM AL and to document a differences in OS and PFS not previously reported for PAL.

Abstract
The synchronous occurrence of primary breast cancer and lymphoid tissue malignant tumors has been rarely reported in the literature. We present an exceedingly rare case of synchronous breast invasive ductal carcinoma with an abdominal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). A 78-year-old woman who was diagnosed with a luminal A invasive breast cancer on core biopsy, and complaint of progressively worsening low back pain. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan that was performed as part of the preoperative staging showed a large abdominal mass measuring 10.5 × 4.8 × 9.5 cm surrounding the lower part of the abdominal aorta, the right common iliac, right external, right internal iliac, and the left internal iliac arteries. A CT-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of the abdominal mass was then performed, to exclude the possibility of being an abdominal tumor metastasis of the known primary breast cancer. Histopathological findings were suggestive of DLBCL. Following a multidisciplinary team discussion, chemotherapy was initiated for DLBCL. The tumor however was refractory to multiple chemotherapy regimens and exhibited a highly aggressive clinical course. The diagnostic evaluation and management of the patient are discussed, along with a review of the relevant literature. This case underscores the fact that the presence of synchronous malignancies may pose both diagnostic and treatment challenges. Accurate staging of both malignancies and multidisciplinary team discussion is of utmost importance to guide an optimal therapeutic approach. Histopathological evaluation is essential for both tumors, for the second malignancy not to be misinterpreted as a secondary deposit of the primary one.

Abstract
Multiple primary malignancies in a single patient are relatively rare; however, the frequency of this has increased significantly in recent decades. Here, we retrospectively reported an unusual case of a 70-year-old man who was admitted to the hospital with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and colon cancer and aimed to explore measures to reduce missed diagnosis. Based on the data, the investigation of the related literatures, colonoscopy examination, and abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan were conducted for the detection of colon cancer. Following this, a precise diagnosis of MCL was confirmed by immunohistochemistry and bone marrow biopsy, which were performed to analyze the clinical characteristics and essentials for the diagnosis and differential of the disease. The results of colonoscopy showed that the patient had colon cancer, while the abdominal CT scan demonstrated colon cancer accompanied by multiple lymphadenopathy throughout the entire body. Besides, the results of immunohistochemistry confirmed that the patient suffered from MCL. The bone marrow biopsy revealed the active hematopoietic tissue hyperplasia but no tumor issue involvement in the bone marrow. In conclusion, our study combined the analysis and summary of the diagnosis and treatment of the colon cancer with MCL to provide clinical guidance for the rare multiple primary malignancy.

Unusual Synchronous Association of Solid Tumors with Hematological Malignancies in Multiple Primary Cancers: Case Series and Literature Review. Case Rep Oncol 2021; 14:352-364. [PMID: 33776729 PMCID: PMC7983565 DOI: 10.1159/000514147] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2020] [Accepted: 12/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
The incidence of synchronous multiple primary malignancies (MPMs), which include both solid and hematological malignancy, is considered very rare. In addition, the involvement of sites such as brain, thyroid, and breast are among the least reported in such complex conditions. Here we report five different types of solid tumors including glioblastoma multiforme, thyroid papillary carcinoma, breast invasive ductal carcinoma, colon cancer, and gastric adenocarcinoma that were associated with synchronous five different hematological malignancies in the form of T-cell lymphoblastic non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), nodal marginal zone NHL, diffuse large B-cell NHL, Hodgkin lymphoma, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue marginal zone NHL, respectively. The diagnosis of MPMs can be challenging, and there is no standard treatment for such difficult primary malignancies. However, the management of these conditions should be individualized using tumor board discussion and ensuring multidisciplinary coordinated care, besides considering treatment of the more aggressive malignancy before that with the less malignant potential.

Heterochronic triple primary malignancies with Epstein-Barr virus infection and tumor protein 53 gene mutation: A case report and review of literature. World J Clin Cases 2021; 9:1184-1195. [PMID: 33644183 PMCID: PMC7896647 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v9.i5.1184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The diagnosis and etiology of multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMNs) are difficult to establish. Here, we report a case of heterochronic triple primary malignancies with gastric cancer, nasopharyngeal squamous cell cancer, and then rectal cancer.
CASE SUMMARY The patient was first diagnosed with gastric cancer at the age of 33 in 2014 and underwent distal gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy and six cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Three years later, he was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer and treated with radical chemoradiotherapy in 2017. Recently, a mass in the middle of the rectum was resected and reported as ulcerative, moderately to poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Research on the etiology of MPMNs showed that Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection may be the cause of gastric cancer and nasopharyngeal squamous cell cancer since these two primary lesions were positive for transcripts of EBV-encoded ribonucleic acid using an in situ hybridization EBV-encoded ribonucleic acid probe in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue. The cause of rectal cancer may be due to a somatic mutation of tumor protein 53 gene in exon 8 (c.844C>T, p.Arg282Trp) through high-throughput sequencing for the rectal cancer. Appropriate standard therapy for each primary cancer was administered, and the patient has no evidence of cancer disease to date.
CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first report on heterochronic triple primary malignancies whose cause may be associated with EBV infection and tumor protein 53 genetic mutations. The etiological research may not only elucidate the cause of MPMN but also has implications in clinical management.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the computed tomography (CT) features of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN), which can be a non-invasive diagnostic tool to differentiate between primary lung cancer (LC) and solitary lung metastasis (LM) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods This retrospective study included SPNs resected in CRC patients between January 2011 and December 2019. The diagnosis of primary LC or solitary LM was based on histopathologic report by thoracoscopic wedge resection. Chest CT images were assessed by two thoracic radiologists, and CT features were identified by consensus. Predictive parameters for the discrimination of primary LC from solitary LM were evaluated using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results We analyzed CT data of 199 patients (mean age, 65.95 years; 131 men and 68 women). The clinical characteristic of SPNs suggestive of primary LC rather than solitary LM was clinical stages I–II CRC (P < 0.001, odds ratio [OR] 21.70). The CT features of SPNs indicative of primary LC rather than solitary LM were spiculated margin (quantitative) (P = 0.020, OR 8.34), sub-solid density (quantitative) (P < 0.001, OR 115.56), and presence of an air bronchogram (quantitative) (P = 0.032, OR 5.32). Conclusions Quantitative CT features and clinical characteristics of SPNs in patients with CRC could help differentiate between primary LC and solitary LM.

Abstract
Background Double primary cancers have a low incidence rate, and synchronous hepatocellular carcinoma and gallbladder adenocarcinoma are rarely reported. Here, we report such a case— the 12th case of synchronous double primary cancers featuring HCC and GC, but the first case of neuroendocrine differentiation in the gallbladder. Case presentation A 77-year-old female was admitted to the hospital complaining of weakness and inappetence for six months. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen indicated an 11 cm space-occupying lesion in the right lobe of the liver. Later, magnetic resonance imaging showed a high possibility of a massive hepatoma, and multiple gallstones were also seen. After transhepatic arterial chemoembolization, a repeat abdominal CT showed obvious local nodular thickening in the gallbladder wall. Finally, resection of the right lobe of the liver and cholecystectomy were performed. During an approximately 2-year follow-up, the patient recovered uneventfully without recurrence or metastasis. Conclusion The disease in this case is rare and lacked typical radiological features. More precise and advanced diagnostic techniques are needed to obtain a clear diagnosis and refine treatment strategies. The management strategy should always be curative, even in the presence of multiple malignancies.

Abstract
Background: Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs) refer to two or more primary malignant tumors in the same individual, the prevalence of which ranges from 0. 734 to 11.7%. The risk factors for MPMs vary and include both genetic and environmental causes. FANCA gene mutation might be a predisposition to the development of a second primary cancer. Here, we report a case in which a patient with a FANCA mutation developed thyroid papillary carcinoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. Case Presentation: A 48-year-old woman was diagnosed with thyroid cancer underwent resection in 2006. In 2008, the patient developed gastric adenocarcinoma and underwent radical gastrectomy. Gastric cancer was completely remitted after radiochemotherapy, but metastasis developed, and she received immunotherapy. The patient died on October 27, 2019. Peripheral blood gene detection showed germline FANCA mutation. Conclusions: Gene detection is of great importance in cancer patients, especially in those with MPMs. FANCA mutation is a predisposition to tumorigenesis that can increase the risk of developing MPMs. Patients with heterozygous FANCA gene mutations have poorer outcomes.
