Thirteen primary adenocarcinomas of the ileum and appendix: a case report.
Adenocarcinomas of the ileum and appendix are uncommon. Multiple synchronous adenocarcinomas of the small bowel without carcinoid features are even more unusual, with only seven reported cases in the literature. The radiologic and pathologic findings are reported in a case with 13 separate, well-documented synchronous primary adenocarcinomas of the ileum and appendix. The value of the double-contrast small bowel enema is emphasized.
