Abstract
There are 250 cases of double cancer of the esophagus and the stomach reported in Japan by 1978. However, few have reported carcinoma arising from the reconstructed stomach tube after radical operation for esophageal cancers.We have come across two such cases. One was a IIa type early stomach cancer, 1.0×0.6cm in diameter, discovered by follow-up endoscopic examination 2 years and 2 months after radical operation for esophageal cancer. The other was a Borrmann III type stomach cancer discovered 11 years after esophageal resection and was treated by resection of the stomach tube and esophago-colo-duodenostomy using midsternotomy.Sixteen such cases reported in Japan, including our two, are reviewed and summarized.
