Abstract

Synchronous occurrence of primary gastric cancer and hepatocelluar carcinoma is very rare. It is mandatory to differentiate synchronous two primary lesions from metastatic lesion, because treatment modality is different for each disease. We report an interesting case of double malignancy, synchronous primary gastric cancer, and primary hepatocelluar carcinoma, who never had a cirrhosis, family history of cancer as well as hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection. Our patient managed with palliative chemotherapy due to multicentric hepatocelluar carcinoma with primary gastric cancer.
