Abstract

We report a case of undifferentiated carcinoma of the endometrium associated with malignant mixed Müllerian tumour of the uterine cervix. Immunohistochemical analysis with multiple markers was performed to demonstrate the coexistence of highly two aggressive components in the same uterus. Clinical data were collected and followed up, and a careful literature review was performed to establish the occurence of these components in a uterine malignancy.

Keywords: Carcinosarcoma; Dedifferentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma; Malignant mixed Müllerian tumour; Undifferentiated carcinoma of the endometrium.
