[An autopsy case of triple cancer associated with superior vena cava syndrome]

In recent years, because of advances in diagnostic techniques and therapy for malignant tumors, it is not rare to encounter cases of primary multiple malignant neoplasms. However, triple cancer is still rare. We report a case of triple cancer--gastric cancer, sigmoid colon cancer and malignant fibrous histiocytoma. To our regret, we could not make a diagnosis while the patient was alive. Careful examination of a cancer patient is important because malignant tumors may develop at any time.
