Popis: | Synchronous cancers account for 0.7 to 1.8% of all gynecologic malignancies. Although synchronous endometrial and ovarian cancers are well reported in the literature, they are largely synchronous endometrioid cancers; no reported case of synchronous endometrial malignant mixed Mullerian tumor (MMMT) and ovarian serous carcinoma is seen. We therefore report a case of synchronous endometrial MMMT and ovarian serous carcinoma in a 60-year-old Nigerian female. |
