摘要:: A retrospective analysis was made of 1044 patients with gynecologic malignancies treated in our department over a 12-year period, in order to review the frequency and types of multiple primary neoplasms. Multiple primary neoplasms were detected in 45 (4.3%) cases, including 16 (2.1%) out of 733 cervical cancers, 14 (8.2%) out of 166 endometrial cancers, three (15%) out of 20 vaginal cancers and 12 (9.8%) out of 123 ovarian cancers. Fifteen cases were synchronous and the remaining 24 cases were heterochronous, with an average 4.9-year interval. The most frequent other site of neoplasm was the breast, particularly in patients with endometrial or ovarian cancer. We conclude that gynecologic malignancies are often associated with primary cancers elsewhere, especially in the breast, stomach, colon and thyroid. A patient presenting with a gynecologic malignancy should be thoroughly examined for a second cancer, as should patients being followed-up after treatment for genital tract cancer.
