Abstract

Nowadays, the diagnosis of synchronous and metachronous malignancies are increasing due to extended lifetime expectancy and advances in cancer diagnosis and therapy. When simultaneously multiple primary tumors are detected, treatment priority is determined according to the severity of each tumor. Synchronous primary prostate and lung cancer is rare. Herein, a case with synchronous prostate and lung cancer is presented.
