Abstract

The second primary cancer, a new cancer subsequent to the initial cancer, usually occurs in a person who has a history of cancer or the patient treated with curative resection. Although the pathogenesis of second primary cancer is unclear, it is always found that occurrence of second primary cancer is related to the age and family history. In our 5 cases’ reports, second primary cancer occurs after curative resection of cholangiocarcinoma. And most of the second primary cancers belong to well differentiated adenocarcinomas which grow slowly and never metastasize distally in early stage. Therefore, operative excision is the most effective treatment. At the same time, conventional examination after operation could improve early diagnosis and timely surgical treatment.
