    Abstract:
    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. AIM: Report of a new case. CASE REPORT: 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. CONCLUSION: The association carcinoide of hail with primitive tumour not carcinoide is reported primarily with carcinomes of the digestive tract in particulary recto colics carcinoma.
