Abstract
Long-term cancer survivors are at increased risk for the development of second primary malignancies. This is usually associated
with common genetic and etiologic factors and the treatment modality used for the primary cancer. In this paper we
describe the case of a patient who developed a leiomyosarcoma in his left arm 5 years after he had a colon adenocarcinoma
resected. Both primary tumours were treated successfully with surgical resection alone. The literature regarding second
primary neoplasms, specifically focused on sarcomas, is briefly reviewed.
