%X BACKGROUND: Urogenital cancers are not an uncommon occurrence in daily practice. Prostate cancer is the second most frequent cancer in men, kidney cancer accounts for 2.4% of all cancers and bladder cancers represent 3.1% of cancers in both men and women [1]. However, the cases of a simultaneous development of all three cancers, including one with a neuroendocrine component, are very few and far between.
METHODS: Our case report involves a case of a patient with prostate adenocarcinoma, clear-cell renal carcinoma, papillary renal carcinoma and small-cell bladder cancer. The patient was treated as if he had separate pathologies by a multidisciplinary team: surgical and oncological, performing radical cystoprostatectomy with left perifascial nephroureterectomy, right ureterostomy and adjuvant chemotherapy, with excellent outcome even four years after the initial diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS: The distinct features of this case are the occurence of four different malignancies of the urogenital system, the family history of colon cancer, the development of small-cell carcinoma of the bladder, which is extremely rare and the good outcome, despite the quadruple malignancies and the aggresivity of the small-cell carcinoma.
CONCLUSIONS: Mutiple primary malignancies are a relatively rare pathology, but should be considered as a possibility in patients who already had a second malignancy. Cases of patients with MPMs should be supervised by a multidisciplinary team and should be followed closely.
