The increasing age of the population has led to the more common occurrence of multi-organ disease. Colorectal cancer (CRC) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) in the same patient is a difficult management problem. Over 10 years, 23 patients with CRC and AAA were treated at Concord Hospital. The management and outcome of these patients was reviewed to identify an optimum plan for patients with both conditions. The average age of patients was 71 years, ranging from 52 to 90 years. There was only one female patient in the series. In 19 of the patients, the AAA and CRC were synchronous, while in the other four patients the AAA and CRC were remote events. Within the group of patients with synchronous AAA and CRC. 12 had the diagnosis of both conditions made pre-operatively. However, in seven cases an unexpected AAA or CRC was found at operation for the other condition. Sixteen patients underwent resection of the CRC, while only eight underwent repair of the AAA. There were three deaths following CRC resection, two following AAA resection, and one following simultaneous CRC resection and AAA repair. Two of 10 patients with large (> 6 cm) AAA, who underwent CRC resection, ruptured the AAA in the postoperative period. A further patient ruptured 10 months following CRC resection. Colorectal cancer was given priority over AAA when these conditions were found simultaneously. The present study suggests that a large AAA (> 6 cm) should be either given preferential treatment, or resected simultaneously, in view of the high risk of rupture.
