Endometrial Carcinoma Arising from a Double Uterus

Abstract

We report a rare case of endometrial carcinoma arisen from both horns of an asymmetrical double uterus.

Invasive adenocarcinoma arising from adenomyosis in a septate uterus

“…Müllerian anomalies have not been implicated as a significant risk factor for development of uterine adenomyosis or malignancies; however, several reports describe the existence of endometrial adenocarcinoma in uterine duplication (2–4). Adenomyosis is a benign entity characterized by the hetero‐topic growth of endometrial glands or stroma (or both) into the myometrium.…”

Uterus Didelphys With Adenocarcinoma in the Right Cavity Diagnosed by 2-Dimensional Sonography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

“…The occurrence of endometrial adenocarcinoma in a malformed uterus has rarely been reported. 3 To the best of our knowledge, a case of carcinoma in one horn of a bicornuate uterus that was accurately diagnosed by 2-dimensional sonography and magnetic resonance imaging before major surgery has not been reported previously. Sonography, especially with a transvaginal approach, is the initial imaging modality in patients with suspected endometrial disease.…”

Successful robot-assisted surgery for treating endometrial cancer affecting bicornuate-bicollis or didelphic uterus

“…Anomalies of the urogenital sinus and malformative combinations close the list of the categories. The association between endometrial cancer and Mullerian duct anomalies is uncommon [4][5][6]. Furthermore, anomalies of female genital tract are not supposed to be risk factors associated with the occurrence of cancer affecting this anatomical area.…”
