Synchronous carcinomas of cervix and ovary: case reports.
Four cases of synchronous carcinoma of the cervix and ovary are reported. In all cases the ovarian and cervical tumours were adenocarcinoma. Surgical management was determined by the extent of the tumours and the need for intracavitary radiotherapy. The dilema in determining whether the tumours were separate primaries or one primary with metastasis is discussed.
