“…According to the prior studies, 4,7,12,13,17,18 the synchronous occurrence of upper GI cancer in not only esophageal and gastric cancer, but also duodenal and gastric cancer, is not rare. Therefore, endoscopists should keep in mind the possibility of multiple primary cancers occurrence during the preoperative examination.…”

OBJECTIVE:To study the clinical presentation, endoscopic features and prognosis of patients with synchronous upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. METHODS:A prospective database review of consecutive patients with synchronous upper GI malignancies was performed in a tertiary university hospital endoscopy unit. Gender, age, symptoms and cancer sites, endoscopic and pathological findings, as well as the long-term survival of these patients were analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 64 patients with a median age of 56 years were included, in which 81.3% were male, 71.9% presented with notable features, 68.8% had familial history of cancer, 56.3% of gastric cancers were at the gastric body, 92.9% of the duodenal malignancies at the duodenal bulb, all esophageal cancers at the middle and lower part of esophagus and a significant proportion of tumors in the synchronous malignancies group were poorly differentiated. In all patients, 20 underwent curative surgical treatment and the 5-year survival rate was only 20%. CONCLUSIONS:Patients with synchronous upper GI cancers are mainly male and present with different anatomic distribution and endoscopic features. They carry a poor prognosis as compared with single primary cancer patients. This case series describes the clinical profiles and emphasizes the necessity of a thorough examination for additional cancers before treatment of upper GI cancer.

“…The simultaneous presence of two or more primary malignancies was once regarded as rare, but is a well recognized situation currently. However, reports on synchronous upper GI malignancies are scarce: most are case reports or small case series that included both upper and lower GI malignancies 4,6,11–13 …”

“…Nguyen et al [8] reported that thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy was performed after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass for obesity without distal stomach resection. Tumor in the middle third of thoracic esophagus with antral tumor in the patient was reported [9] in the year of 2002; however, they both were advanced tumors, and had even multiple hepatic metastases. Subtotal gastrectomy was performed and Malafaia tube was inserted to solve the problem of obstruction.…”

Rationale:The stomach is always used to reconstruct the upper digestive tract for esophageal cancer operation. However, problems arise when the esophageal cancer and gastric cancer present at the same time. No medical literature mentioned about this surgical procedure till now.Patient concerns:Majority of the patients had the sensation of obstruction when swallowing because of the esophageal tumor. Gastric adenocarcinoma was found when gastroscopy was performed.Diagnosis:Synchronous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and gastric adenocarcinoma were confirmed by biopsy pathology.Interventions:We describe the new technique as: distal gastrectomy preserving the gastroepiploic vessels, Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy with chest anastomosis.Outcomes:Three patients accepted the surgery and recovered well without any complications. The patients did not undergo any postoperative adjuvant therapy and was doing well without any recurrence till date (23 months, 12 months, 6 months separately).Lessons:This procedure was less invasive and easier to perform for synchronous early-stage gastric cardiac cancer and middle or lower third thoracic esophageal cancer. We recommend the indication as: esophageal tumor was located at least 27 cm away from the incisor teeth (for R0 resection during chest anastomosis, be sure no superior mediastinal lymph nodes metastasis were found preoperation), gastric tumor was located in the distal portion of the gastric tube and evaluated for clinical stage IA.
