  • Title: Metachronous primary carcinoma of small bowel following resected colorectal carcinoma: a report of three cases.
    Author: Honoré LH.
    Journal: J Surg Oncol; 1980; 14(4):341-6. PubMed ID: 6969334.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of metachronous adenocarcinoma of the large and small bowel are reported. The small-bowel lesions were not even suspected preoperatively and were diagnosed after extensive pathologic study. Though rare, metachronous primary carcinoma of the small bowels must be considered in a patient with intestinal obstruction or hemorrhage following colorectal cancer surgery. Pre-operative diagnosis, which demands a high index of suspicion and careful technical evaluation, is crucial in determining the overall surgical management of the patient.
