Double primary cancer is defined as the case of primary malignant tumors, which must be arise in different sites and have a different histologic appearences. The number of reported cases of double primary malignant tumors has increased in recent and the occurrence of multiple primary cancers in the same individuals is one of the interesting subjects for investigation and research in relation to the carcinogenic mechanism and/or genetic factors. We have experienced a case with double primary malignant tumors of different site origins such as stomach adenocarcinoma and rectal adenocarcinoma, which were diagnosed by biopsies with gastro and colono fiberscopy. For its great rarity, we report this case with review of literatures.

Urinary tract calculi are among the earliest documented afflictions of man but much remains to be learned about the causes and prevention of this common disease. We estimated the serum concentration and urinary excretion of calcium in 65 stone-formers, comparing to those 21 controls. Additionally, serum parathyroid hormone level in 38 stone-formers was estimated. The results were as follows: 1. Serum calcium levels of stone formers were significantly higher than those of controls in total, male and female. 2. Urinary calcium levels of stone formers were significantly higher than those of controls in total, male and female. 3. Hypercalcemia was significantly more frequent for stone-formers in total and male, but not in female. 4. Hypercalcemia was significantly more frequent for stone-formers in total, but not in male and female. 5. The incidence of stone-formers, in whom normocalcemia and normocalciuria, was significantly less than that of controls. 6. Serum parathyroid hormone levels of stone formers were significantly higher than those of control in total and female, but not in male. 7. The elevated serum parathyroid hormone was more frequent in stone formers, but not significant statistically. These results suggest the possibility that metabolic disorder of calcium may play some roles in the genesis of urinary stone.

It was suspected that a GUT infection could be a possible cause of infertility. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Trichomonas vaginalis and Gonococci on sperm motility. Human fresh spermatozoa from 50 healthy medical students were mixed and diluted with Trichomonas vaginalis and Gonococci. 30 specimens to Trichomonas vaginalis and 20 specimens to Gonococci were exposed with varying concentration from 10(4) to 10(6) organisms/ml of broth, respectively. Spermatozoal motility scale devised by Emmens was checked at serial time of hours in vitro. The following results were obtained: 1. The sperm motility of control groups among pure semen, semen with normal saline and semen with broth solution were no significant differences. 2. A significantly decreased sperm motility ensued in Trichomonas vaginalis experimental groups, 106 organisms/ml and broth extract contained metabolite, than control group. 3. There were no significant differences between control groups and experimental groups in Gonococci.
