Synchronous bilateral endometrioid ovarian cancer and uterine adeno carcinoma in a young woman

Journal Title: Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal - Year 2001, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Synchronous carcinomas involving both the ovary and uterine corpus are relatively uncommon. These tumours represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge, particularly if they have similar histology. Here we present the case of a 34-year-old woman with bilateral endometrioid cancers of both ovaries and adenocarcinoma of the uterus.
