We encountered a 46-year-old woman with synchronous quintuple primary cancers. She did not present with any symptoms, and her tumors were discovered at a gynecological screening. She had clear cell adenocarcinoma of the right ovary, moderately differentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the endometrium, moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon, well-differentiated adenocarcinoma of the rectum, and poorly differentiated papillary adenocarcinoma of the left lung. A fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography and other imaging techniques were extremely useful for the diagnosis of multiple primary cancers. Moreover, MSH2 protein expression was absent in the tumors of the ovary, endometrium, ascending colon, and rectum, while the rectal cancer also lacked MLH1 protein. These findings suggested that an abnormality of DNA mismatch repair genes was responsible for carcinogenesis.
我们遇到一位 46 岁女性,患有同步性五重原发性癌。她无症状,肿瘤是在妇科筛查中发现的。她的右侧卵巢有透明细胞腺癌、子宫内膜中分化子宫内膜样腺癌、升结肠中分化腺癌、直肠高分化腺癌和左肺低分化乳头状腺癌。氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描和其他成像技术对诊断多重原发性癌非常有用。此外,卵巢、子宫内膜、升结肠和直肠的肿瘤中缺乏 MSH2 蛋白表达,而直肠癌也缺乏 MLH1 蛋白。这些发现表明,DNA 错配修复基因异常导致了癌变。
