    Abstract:
    A 40-year-old man had undergone right hemicolectomy and sigmoidectomy under the diagnosis of ascending and sigmoid colon cancer and right nephroureterectomy under the diagnosis of right ureteral cancer, in 1997 and in 2002, respectively. In 2007, He visited our hospital with a complaint of bloody stool and hematuria. Colon fiberscopy, ureteropelvicscopy and cystoscopy demonstrated colon cancer, left renal pelvis cancer and bladder cancer, respectively, as diagnosed by biopsies, followed by restative colectomy, left nephroureterectomy and cystectomy. The final histopathological examination showed well differentiated adenocarcinoma (pSM) in the colon, and urothelial carcinoma in the left renal pelvis (pT2) and the bladder (pT1). Since his uncle and elder brother had suffered from stomach cancer and colon cancer, respectively, he was diagnosed with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC : Lynch syndrome). He has been well doing without recurrence for 3 years after the surgery.
