Abstract

We report a case of 58 years old male with synchronous primary neoplasms of the stomach and kidney. The incidence of synchronous gastric cancer and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is quite low, and concomitant surgery is rare. Surgeons need to be aware of the possibility of a synchronous second primary cancer when the initial gastric cancer is diagnosed. We report this case to highlight a rare occurrence of synchronous malignancy of stomach and kidney.
