Abstract
The association of endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary and primary carcinoma of the endometrium is well recognised. These tumours are often synchronous in occurrence. Oestrogen stimulation is often postulated as a significant factor in the development of the endometrial carcinoma in such cases. We describe the case of a patient who developed a mucinous endometrial carcinoma 18 years after initial bilateral ovariectomy. The aetiology and pathogenesis of the uterine tumour is discussed.
