RESUMO

Multiple primary tumors are defined as multiple simultaneous (within 6 months) or heterogeneous tumors. Case presentation: Here, the authors present the case of a 58-year-old Saudi female patient with Li-Fraumeni syndrome who has multiple primary tumors. Clinical discussion: The surgical cytoreduction or 'debulking' technique is the main treatment option started in individuals with High Grade Serous Ovarian CanceR. This surgical strategy aims to completely remove all disseminated tumor masses that are present in the patient's peritoneal cavity on a macroscopic level. Conclusion: In conclusion, in our case, she has developed her ovarian cancer 27 years after her breast cancer got treated. This was already stage IIIB to stage IV. If it was not for her incidental discovery of her urinary bladder cancer, which is most likely is a long-term sequel of using cyclophosphamide 27 years ago.Multiple primary tumors are defined as multiple simultaneous (within 6 months) or heterogeneous tumors.

Methods: This study was a descriptive, correlational cross-sectional study to achieve the objectives of the study. All overweight and obese population in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Study instrument was designed based on the data present in the latest literature. Study tool consisted of: (1) sociodemographic data, (2) motives of bariatric surgery, (3) concerns about bariatric surgery, (4) people affecting the decision of seeking bariatric surgery, and (5) general anxiety disorder scale. Results: The study included 567 participants. More than half of the study participants were females (n=335, 59.1%). The mean age among study participants was 27.88 years. Most of the participants selected themselves as the main person (n=329). In the second place comes "person who had the surgery" (n=72). A family member was prevalent among 59 participants and a friend among 57 participants. The partner has the least frequency. The most common reason was self-esteem among 26% followed by body image among 20%. The most frequent factor was "I am satisfied with my current weight loss method) among 220 participants followed by "I am afraid of any surgery and will avoid it unless absolutely needed" among 51 participants. Conclusion: Bariatric surgery patients want to improve their health and live longer. Several people are dissatisfied with their bodies and seek cosmetic surgery. Patients desire bariatric surgery for their own and their loved ones', physicians', and peers' reasons.
