Abstract

We report a case of five metachronous primary cancers completely resected during 39 years. An 80-year-old woman had been diagnosed with and treated for bilateral breast cancers, gastric cancer, sigmoid colonic cancer, Bowen's disease and renal pelvic cancer. These cancers were found as metachronous cancers and were surgically treated. This is the first case of completely resected metachronous five cancers in Japan.
