Ceska Gynekol. 2018 Winter;83(6):445-447.

Abstract

Objective: Information about an interesting real clinical case.

Design: Case repor.

Setting: Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University hospital in Ostrava.

Methods and results: A 64-year-old female patient with no family history of gynecologic tumors was indicated to total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy due to confirmed squamous cervical carcinoma stage IB1. The operation was converted to laparotomy due to unexpected peroperative finding of ovarian malignancy. Peroperatively, left ovary borderline tumor and tiny implants on the surface of uterus and small pelvis walls were confirmed. Radical abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophrectomy, omentectomy, appendectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy and peritonectomy were performed.

Conclusion: Definitive postoperative histology further revealed an endometroid adenocarcinoma of the uterus, serous left ovary borderline tumor with non-invasive implants and no residual tumor of cervical carcinoma. In our clinic, several tumor duplicities were reported, but this is the first case of a gynecological tumor triplicity. As far we know, this is the first case report refering to a gynecological tumor triplicity in one time. Keywords gynecologic, multiple, malignancy, radical surgery.

Keywords: gynecologic; malignancy; multiple; radical surgery.
