Mesonephric carcinoma of the cervix associated with ovarian serous carcinoma: a case report.

Malignant mesonephric tumor of the uterine cervix is an extremely uncommon subtype of cervical adenocarcinoma with rare, documented cases in the literature. In this report, we present a case of 58 yo, with abdominal pain and ascites that was found to have a synchronous presence of a mesonephric adenocarcinoma of the cervix and advanced serous ovarian carcinoma on the surgical specimen. The histological study identified a tumor showing a mix of tubular and ductal growth patterns. Immunohistochemical analyses were positive for cytokeratin, vimentin, calretinin and CD10. However, the tumor cells were negative for estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor. The patient received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with a combination of carboplatin and gemcitabine followed by optimal debulking surgery and was alive after 18 months of follow up. The management of this rare case remains unclear due to the absence of management guidelines.
