Saudamini Omprakash Sikchi, Michelle De Padua, Samatha Kumar
Abstract :
In female genital tract, an adenofioma is commonly reported in ovary and rarely in cervix while it is extremely rare in endometrium. Here, we report a case of papillary cystadenofioma of uterus in a postmenopausal woman with history of east carcinoma. In our review of published case reports, very few cases have been reported so far arising from endometrium, presenting as polypoidal lesions in uterine cavity. In all reported cases, six patients had history of east carcinoma. There has been an attempt to establish relationship between adenofioma of uterus and tamoxifen intake in patients with east carcinoma. However, our patient did not receive tamoxifen. In a view of reported incidence of these tumours in east cancer patients we propose a theory that uterine mixed Müllerian tumour may be secondary to yet unknown genetic risk factor independent of tamoxifen.
