Abstract EN

The occurrence of multiple synchronous primary tumors is extremely rare.

The management plan of synchronous cancers has long been debatable and difficult mainly in tumors with different molecular characteristics.

In this report, we present the second case in literature of a concomitant diagnosis of a metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma and a locally advanced renal cell carcinoma.

We also elaborate on our management combining chemo-therapy and targeted therapy through an extensive review of literature

Abstract FRE

Le diagnostic de tumeurs malignes synchrones est extrêmement rare et pose des difficultés de traitement surtout en cas de tumeurs avec des caractéristiques moléculaires différentes.

Dans cet article, nous présentons le second cas rapporté dans la littérature d’un patient porteur de deux tumeurs synchrones: un adénocarcinome pancréatique métastatique et un carcinome rénal à cellules claires localement avancé.

La prise en charge thérapeutique de notre patient a été élaborée à la lumière d’une revue extensive de la littérature
