The Turcot syndrome has been defined as the simultaneous presence of multiple polyposis of the colon and a malignant brain tumor. This association is supposed to be genetically transmitted, even though we still do not exactly know whether this occurs in a dominant or recessive way. The case of a 47-year-old man submitted to a right hemicolectomy for cancer and polyposis, following a series of endoscopic polypectomies and, finally, removal of left temporal glioma is here presented.
Turcot综合征被定义为结肠多发息肉病与恶性脑肿瘤同时存在。这种关联被认为是通过基因遗传的，尽管我们仍不完全清楚这是以显性还是隐性方式发生的。本文介绍了一名47岁男性的病例，该患者在接受了一系列内镜下息肉切除术后，因癌症和息肉病接受了右半结肠切除术，最终切除了左颞叶胶质瘤。
