Аннотация
RATIONALE: Dedifferentiated endometrioid adenocarcinoma (DEAC) consisted of a combination of undifferentiated and differentiated carcinoma is more aggressive than other conventional endometrioid adenocarcinomas.
PATIENT CONCERNS: A 33-year-old woman with atypical vaginal bleeding was refereed to our hospital. She had an endometrial biopsy in a local clinic which showed differentiated endometrioid carcinoma with trophoblastic components. High levels of β-Human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) and alfa-fetoprotein (AFP) were detected in the patient's serum.
INTERVENTIONS: The patient underwent total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, total omentectomy and systemic pelvic lymphadenectomy in our center.
DIAGNOSIS: Pathological investigation indicated that the tumor had well differentiated and undifferentiated adenocarcinoma as well as trophoblastic components.
OUTCOMES: Serum β-hCG and AFP dropped significantly after operation. But three weeks later, the patient had developed pulmonary metastases and elevation of serum β-hCG. She died of the disease five months after surgery.
LESSONS: DEAC with trophoblastic differentiation seems to follow an aggressive course with early metastasis and poor clinical prognosis. However, due to small number of cases, further studies are necessary.
