Synchronous oral and gastric carcinoma in the western world is rare. We report a case of synchronous oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and gastric adenocarcinoma which was found as an incidental finding during placement of a Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) before resection of the oral tumour.
