title: A case with three different synchronous primaries of the female genital system and their treatment.
abstract: Multiple carcinomas of the genital system are rare in the literature. We report a 43-year-old female patient who presented with 3 different synchronous primary genital system malignancies (cervix, endometrium and ovary). After Wertheim's hysterectomy there was a 4 x 2 cm residual mass for which systemic chemotherapy and radiotherapy were administered. The patient rapidly deteriorated and died due to disease progression. Registration of cases with multiple tumors in a single centre using a standardized investigation for predisposing parameters may contribute much to the management of such conditions.
