TI  - A Single-center Experience of Synchronous and Metachronous Hematologic and Oncologic Tumors
AB  - The incidence of cancer is increasing in the world. With the developments in cancer treatment, the life expectancy of patients is prolonged and the incidence of secondary malignancies is increasing. We retrospetively patients with syncronous / metachronous oncological malignancies accompanying hematological malignancies in a newly established hematology center. Data were obtained from the medical records. Demographic data, treatments and overall survival of the patients were evaluated. Twenty eight (6%) of 433 patients hematological malignancies were included in the study. 12 patients (42.9) were diagnosed with syncronous and 16 (57.1%) patients with metachronous hematologic-oncologic tumors. Sixteen of the patients were male,twelve were female. In syncronous tumors, the most common hematologic malignancy was Non-hodgkın lymphoma (NHL), while the most common oncologic malignancies were thyroid papillary cancer and colon cancer. In metachronous tumors, the most common malignancies were NHL and breast cancer. The median time between diagnosis of metachronous tumors was 49.5 months (8-192 months). The median survival of patients with syncronous malignancies was 19 months (SE=12.19) (95% CI 0-42.89), with metachronous malignancies was 22 months (SE=14.0) (95% CI 0-49.44). There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of survival curves of patients with syncronous and metachronous malignancies (p=0.382). Oncological malignancies accompanying hematological malignancies are not uncommon. There is no standart treatment for syncronous / metachronous hematologic malignancies. In the presence of syncronous multipl malignancies should be evaluated individually.
