Adenocarcinomas of the ileum and appendix are uncommon. Multiple synchronous adenocarcinomas of the small bowel without carcinoid features are even more unusual, with only seven reported cases in the literature. The radiologic and pathologic findings are reported in a case with 13 separate, well-documented synchronous primary adenocarcinomas of the ileum and appendix. The value of the double-contrast small bowel enema is emphasized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
