Synchronous Malignancies

Introduction: Esophageal cancer is the fifth most common cancer in Asia. Synchronous malignancies with an esophageal malignancies is not uncommon however synchronous esophageal malignancy and renal cell carcinoma is rare. Case Report: A 70 years old non smoker man with comorbid of hypertension and diabetes mellitus presented with multiple episode of hemoptysis and pleuritic chest pain within one day duration. He also complaint of worsening dysphagia to solid food for 1 month duration with constitutional symptoms. Otherwise he does not have any other symptoms. Clinically he was pale and cachexic, otherwise all systemic examination was unremarkable. His blood investigation reveal low hemoglobin level of 9.9g/L with normal coagulation and renal profile. He underwent Oesophagoduodenoscopy which showed a tumor narrowing the lumen of the lower esophagus. Biopsy of the tumor revealed esophageal adenocarcinoma. CT thorax, abdomen and pelvis showed smooth circumferential wall thickening of the distal part of the esophagus near the gastroesophageal junction. Incidentally, there were heterogenous enhancing lobulated mass seen at the lower pole of left kidney with no obstructive uropathy features. Otherwise, others solid organ were normal. A left renal mass biopsy performed revealed renal cell carcinoma. An oncologist opinion was gathered for initiation of palliative chemotherapy however he developed symptomatic malignant pleural effusion which need a drainage. HRCT Thorax revealed multiple bilateral intrapulmonary nodule. He also complaint of a new right upper eyelid mass that increasing in size with contact bleeding however does not affect his visual. An assessment from an ophthalmologist and CT orbital performed consistent with features of a metastasis. Conclusion: Synchronous malignancies with an esophageal malignancies is not uncommon. Most common site reported is head and neck followed by lung malignancies. However synchronous esophageal malignancies and renal cell carcinoma is rare. Esophageal malignancies often have distant metastasis to the liver, lung and bone however rare to the eyelid.

We report the case of a 56-year-old postmenopausal woman whopresented with incidental left hydronephrosis during an investigationfor a gastrointestinal complaint. The patient denied any historyof flank pain or hematuria. Contrast-enhanced computedtomography revealed severe right-sided ureterohydronephrosis aswell as renal atrophy. The contralateral kidney was normal, as wasthe patient’s overall renal function. A retrograde ureterogramdemonstrated complete ureteral obstruction 4 cm proximal to theureterovesical junction. Subsequent ureteroscopy revealed a polypoidmass completely occupying the ureteral lumen, of which thebiopsies demonstrated inconclusive atypical urothelial changes.The patient underwent a laparoscopic nephrectomy with opendissection of the distal ureter. The patient recovered well postoperatively.Final pathology revealed a benign obstructingendometrioma without evidence of invasion from periureteraltissue. This appears to be the first reported case of asymptomaticprimary ureteral endometrioma with secondary renal atrophy.Earlier investigation and treatment may have allowed for renalpreservation earlier in the course of the disease.Nous décrivons le cas d’une femme ménopausée de 56 ans présentantune hydronéphrose gauche découverte de façon fortuite aucours d’un examen mené pour donner suite à des symptômes gastro-intestinaux. La patiente n’avait pas d’antécédents de douleurau flanc ou d’hématurie. Une TDM avec agent de contraste arévélé une urétéro-hydronéphrose droite importante accompagnéed’une atrophie rénale. Le rein controlatéral et la fonction rénaleglobale de la patiente ne présentaient aucune anomalie. Uneurétérographie par voie rétrograde a permis d’observer une obstructioncomplète de l’uretère proximale à 4 cm de la jonction urétérovésicale.Une urétéroscopie subséquente a révélé une masse polypoïdeoccupant la totalité de la lumière urétérale et des analysesaprès biopsie ont montré des changements atypiques non concluantsau niveau de l’épithélium urinaire. La patiente a subi unenéphrectomie par laparoscopie avec dissection ouverte de l’uretèredistale. La patiente s’est bien rétablie après l’intervention. Lerapport final de pathologie a révélé un endométriome obstructifbénin sans signe d’invasion des tissus péri-urétéraux. Il sembleque ce soit ici le premier cas signalé d’endométriome urétéralprimitif asymptomatique avec atrophie rénale secondaire. Un examenet un traitement réalisés plus tôt dans le cours de l’évolutionde la maladie auraient pu permettre la préservation du rein.

Abstract Background The increasing number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the last few years has unveiled a unique set of events and complications that need prompt recognition and management in order to improve patient outcomes, often involving a multidisciplinary team. Case summary We present a case of a 86-year-old woman with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis that underwent a TAVI and, in the post-procedure period, presented with acute abundant haematemesis, haemodynamic instability, and haemoglobin drop. The diagnosis of acute necrotizing oesophagitis (ANE) was made by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Discussion Acute necrotizing oesophagitis is a rare entity caused usually by an ischaemic insult in the presence of predisposing factors; it has a high rate of complications and mortality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first clinical case report to describe the occurrence of ANE as a possible complication of TAVI and is also an example of the importance of the multidisciplinary approach of these complex patients, which extends even beyond the concept of Heart Team.
