Synchronous colorectal cancer and abdominal aortic aneurysm treated simultaneously. Is a one-stage surgery a feasible treatment?

The finding of synchronous abdominal aortic aneurysm and colorectal cancer is rare. There is no consensus on which is the best surgical approach, so its management remains uncertain. A 64-year-old man was diagnosed with synchronous abdominal aortic aneurysm and rectal cancer. One-stage treatment was performed: He underwent endovascular aortic repair followed by simultaneous laparoscopic tumor resection. In our experience, one-stage minimally invasive surgery could be a safe and feasible treatment for concomitant abdominal aortic aneurysm and colorectal cancer.
