Abstract

|
|
|
Adenocarcinoma of the cervix combined with ovarian Adenocarcinoma is a rare case. Adenocarcinoma of the cervix arises from the columnar epithelium of the endocervix and constitues 4-5% of all cervical cancers. It usually arises in the endocervical canal and may be found localized to the isthmic region in an occasional hysterectomy specimen. The lesion may have a higher incidence of radioresistance and thus indicate surgery as primary treatment more often. Adenocarcinoma of the cervix is characterized by its gland architecture which may present various degrees of differentiation. If both ovary and endometrium are involved, it is impossible to know which is the primary tumor or if there is a multicentric malignant trend of uterine and ectopic endometrium. A case of cervical Adenocarcinoma combined with an ovarian Adenocarcinoma is presented with a brief review of literature available.
