A patient with synchronous multiple malignant neoplasms of the female genital tract, involving the ovary, the cervix and the endometrium is described. A 49-year-old patient, presenting pelvic pain and menometrorrhagia over the last six months. An abdominal and speculum examination revealed an abnormal mass occupying the entire left lower quadrant and a vegetating tumor of the cervix, respectively. Microscopic examination of the uterus and ovary revealed a cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary and an adenosquamous carcinoma of the cervix and an endometrioid carcinoma of the endometrium. The data suggests this is a multiple mullerian tumor. Due to treatment and prognostic implications, in the presence of a patient with a tumor involving different organs, we must not overlook differential diagnosis between primary and metastatic tumor.Downloads
