High Grade Serous Papillary Adenocarcinoma of Mullerian Origin

Abstract

Epithelial ovarian, tubal, and peritoneal carcinomas represent a spectrum of disease that originates in the Mullerian compartment, collectively known as adenocarcinoma of Mullerian origin [1], first described by Dr. Swerdlow in 1959 [2]. It was previously known as cancers of unknown primary (CUP). Incidence being 3-5% [3]. It is important to recognize this tumor as it has more favorable prognosis and sensitive to chemotherapy. We report a case of 52 years old female presented with postmenopausal bleeding and was diagnosed with high grade serous papillary carcinoma of bilateral ovaries involving right tube and peritoneal deposits diagnosed after histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
