Clinicopathological characteristics of patients with synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers: A review of 43 cases.

Synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers are uncommon. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers. The clinicopathological characteristics of 43 patients with synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University between 1999 and 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. Our results revealed that the median age at the time of diagnosis was 51 years (range, 29-71). The common presenting symptoms were abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB, 65.12%), abdominal mass (25.58%), abdominal pain and abdominal fullness (39.53%). An elevated CA125 level was observed in the majority of patients (n=20, 76.9%). Endometrioid type accounted for 60.47% of uterine carcinomas and different pathological types, including serous adenocarcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, adenosquamous and acanthoadenocarcinoma, were also identified in synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers. All patients underwent surgical intervention (hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy or debulking surgery). The 5-year survival rate was 86.05% and nine patients had recurrence (20.93%). The early stage group (FIGO stages I and II) had more favorable prognosis than the advanced stage group (FIGO stages III and IV; P<0.05). In conclusion, synchronous primary endometrial and ovarian cancers are different from either primary endometrial carcinoma or ovarian cancer and are usually identified at early stages with a good prognosis.
