Synchronous Primary Ovarian Mucinous Carcinoma and Endometrioid Endometrial Carcinoma : A rare case report.

Abstract

Introduction: Synchronous tumours of female genital tract are a rare . The most common organs involved are ovary and endometrium. Endometrioid carcinoma is the most common malignancy detected in majority of cases . Synchronous cancers with dissimilar histology are a very rare phenomenon . We report a case of 51 year old lady with synchronous primary mucinous carcinoma of ovary and primary endometrioid endometrial carcinoma .Case Report: a 51 year old lady presented with post menopausal bleeding and foul smelling vaginal discharge of 1 month duration . Her CA125 was elevated. Magnetic resonance imaging showed increased endometrial thickness and a12.5x10x9.3cm mass in the fundus of uterus suggestive of a leiomyoma along with and a 13.8x11.5x11cm mass in the left adnexa. Endometrial aspiration done showed Complex Hyperplasia with Atypia. Total abdominal hysterctomy and bilateral salphingoophorectomy along with lymphnode sampling was performed . The adnexal mass was pT1a pN0 cM0 grade 2 invasive mucinous carcinoma. The endometrial lesion was pT1b pN0 cM0 FIGO grade 2 endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma. Conclusion:Synchronous ovarian tumours of dissimilar histology is extremely rare and there are only a few reports of ovarian mucinous carcinoma with endometrioid endometrial carcinoma.

Synchronous Primary Endometrium and Ovarian Carcinoma: A Case Report

“…Synchronous tumors of the female genital tract are rare and make only about 1% of all genital malignancies. [1][2][3] The most common synchronous tumor is synchronous endometrial and ovarian cancer and accounts for 50-70% of all. 1 However, the majority of the cases are metastatic arising from one organ and simultaneous primary cancer involving both organs is uncommon.…”
