|
Multiple primary malignant neoplasm of the combination of the musculoskeletal system and the gastrointestinal system were very rare. A case of synchronous double primary malignant neoplasm consisted of myxofibrosarcoma of forearm and adenocarcinoma of rectum in a 52 year-old man was found. The patient had pain and swelling on forearm for 1 year. Histologically, the lesion on forearm showed myxofibrosarcoma. In systemic evaluation, the adenocarcinoma of rectum was found by the sigmoidoscopy, and metastasis on lung and intracardiac mass were found by the CT scan. We performed surgical excision and pre and postoperative chemotherapy after pathologic confirmation. He died of pulmonary thromboembolism after postoperative 2 months. We report this case of exceedingly rare combination of the musculoskeletal system and the gastrointestinal system.
