AB  - The features of multiple primary gastric and colorectal cancer (MPGCC) were 
      investigated, using 447 patients with primary gastric cancer and 199 with 
      colorectal cancer during 1981-1992. Thirteen of these patients were found to have 
      adenocarcinoma in both the stomach and colorectum. The increase rate for MPGCC 
      and colorectal cancer was higher than that of primary gastric cancer (p < 0.05). 
      Of the 13 patients with MPGCC, 8 showed synchronous MPGCC, while 5 showed 
      metachronous MPGCC. Five of the 8 patients with synchronous MPGCC showed either 
      Stage I or II in both lesions of the stomach and colorectum, and all 5 patients 
      with metachronous MPGCC showed Stage I or II in the lesion of the second primary 
      cancer. Since patients with MPGCC are expected to have a relatively good 
      prognosis, both a preoperative examination and postoperative follow-up will be 
      needed in order not to overlook lesions of the stomach or colorectum in patients 
      with MPGCC.
