Total proctocolectomy, pancreaticoduodenectomy and total gastrectomy for multiple carcinomas in a patient with familial adenomatous polyposis.
A unique case of familial adenomatous polyposis presenting with simultaneous adenocarcinoma of the periampullary region, gallbladder and several gastric lesions, 10 years after a total proctocolectomy, is reported. Multiple gastrointestinal carcinomas associated with familial polyposis have been reported sporadically. However, this is the only known patient who successfully underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure) and a total gastrectomy in addition to a previous total proctocolectomy.
