| الوصف: | Abstract Background Concomitant invasive ovarian mucinous adenocarcinoma, unilateral renal agenesis and bicornuate uterus is a rare combination. Unilateral renal agenesis has been associated with genital anomalies, such as unicornuate and bicornuate uterus. Furthermore, a wealth of studies has reported the association between unicornuate uterus and ovarian anomalies, such as the absence of an ovary or ectopic ovaries, but rarely has there been a combination of the three to the best of our knowledge. The present case report is the first case presentation with a combination of the three syndromes: ovarian mucinous tumor, unilateral renal agenesis, and bicornuate uterus. Case presentation We report the case of a 17-year-old who presented with abdominal distension. On examination, a CT scan revealed a large multicystic abdominal mass on the right side, with an absence of the right kidney while the left kidney was normal in size, appearance, and position. Intraoperatively, massive blood-stained ascitic fluid was evacuated. Additionally, a large whitish polycystic intra-abdominal mass with mucus-like materials and solid areas was attached to the midpoint of the colon and the right ovary, with visible metastasis to the omentum. The uterus was bicornuate. The mass and omentum were taken for histopathology and a diagnosis of invasive ovarian mucinous cystadenocarcinoma with metastasis to the colon and omentum was made after a pathological report. Conclusions The presence of these conditions in the same individual could potentially complicate medical management and fertility considerations. Thus, a need for a multidisciplinary medical team, including gynecologists, urologists, and oncologists, to address their unique needs and provide appropriate treatment and guidance. Further research and case studies are needed to better understand the possible association and implications of these rare co-occurring conditions. |
