Abstract

A case of a triple cancer in the lung, stomach, and liver has been experienced and a subsequent operation was performed. It has been noted that the occurrence of triple cancers have increased by about four times during the last decade, no doubt due to progress in more accurate diagnoses and from therapeutic effects. However, operations involving triple cancer still are rare and such cases in the literatures are discussed.
