A case of concomitant association of duodenal carcinoma and jejunal carcinoma with cerebral metastasis.
A case of concomitant association of primary suprapapillary and jejunal carcinomas with cerebral metastasis is reported. A 42-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of melena. Preoperative endoscopy and abdominal angiography showed primary suprapapillary carcinoma, and brain CT showed a high density mass in the right parietal lobe causing involuntary movement of the left upper extremity. During surgery another tumor was revealed in the jejunum about 80 cm from the Treitz' ligament. These were removed surgically and examined histologically.
