Multiple Primary Tumors Originating From the Prostate and Colorectum A Clinical-Pathological and Therapeutic Challenge

Considering that the incidence of colorectal (CRC) and prostatic cancer (PC) increases with age, metachronous and synchronous tumors can often affect the same patient. Despite the importance of this subject for the diagnosis and management of oncologic patients, in medical literature the data are sc...
