Coexistent Uterine Myoma, Colon Adenocarcinoma Ureteral Duplication in A Young Female Patient
Şeyma Hasçalık*, Önder Celik*, Mehmet Yılmaz**, Hale Kırımlıoglu*** . Abstract | | | |
Uterine leiomyomas are the most common solid pelvic tumor and a common indication for hysterectomy in
women. Ureteral duplication may be genetically determined by an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete
penetrance. Colorectal carcinomas are the second most common internal malignancy. When the literature is
reviewed we could not find any report showing a relationship among these pathologic conditions. To our
knowledge so far, this is the first report describing the incidental finding of leiomyoma uteri, double ureter and
colon adenocarcinoma in a young female patient, therefore this case is presented.
Key Words: Leiomyoma Uteri, Ureteral Duplication, Colorectal Carcinoma.
