This case report details a patient with simultaneous uterine endometrial carcinoma and ascending colon carcinoma, alongside endometriosis, questioning whether this co-occurrence is an association or coincidental.

This paper reports a retrospective case in which endometriosis co-occurred with synchronous cancers of the uterine endometrium and the ascending colon. The authors describe the concurrence as an association versus coincidence, based on the described clinical case, with informed consent obtained and no declared conflicts of interest or funding. A key limitation is that it is a single case report, which cannot establish a causal relationship between endometriosis and the two malignancies. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it presents an endometriosis case occurring alongside synchronous carcinoma of the uterine endometrium and ascending colon, framed as potentially associated or coincidental.
