ABSTRACT
Multiple primary colorectal carcinomas are not rare and occur more often than what can be ascribed to chance, but the frequencies on record vary. The tumors are usually classified as synchronous if they are present at the same time. It is often difficult to detect all these multiple lesions preoperativelya correct diagnosis is frequently obtained only upon examination of the resected specimen. Triple synchronous primary colon cancer is an exceedingly rare disease. Despite of its rarity, multiple colon cancers should be investigated in the patients in whom clinical or laboratory evidence of colon cancer is suspected. Recently, we experienced one case of triple synchronous primary colon cancer diagnosed by colonoscopy before operation and report here with the review of the literature.
