[Synchronous association of ileal carcinoid and colorectal carcinoma. A case report].
BACKGROUND
Multiple primary malignant neoplasms in a single patient have been well documented in the literature. The lesions can be limited to a single organ or involve multiple organ systems and can be synchronous or metachronous.


OBJECTIVE
Report of a new case.


METHODS
We report the case of a 63 year old women with a rectocolonic carcinoma; during surgery an ileal nodule was discovered also as liver metastasis. The final pathologic report on the specimen revealed an adenocarcinoma of the colon and a carcinoid tumor of the small bowel with liver metastasis. Tumoral association is relatively common for patients with small intetinal carcinoids.


CONCLUSIONS
The association carcinoide of hail with primitive tumour not carcinoide is reported primarily with carcinomes of the digestive tract in particulary recto colics carcinoma.
