Abstract:
Mesonephric adenocarcinoma is a rare tumor that is considered to develop from mesonephric remnants of the female genital tract. This tumor usually occurs in the lateral wall of the uterine cervix. Herein, we present an exceptionally rare case of mesonephric adenocarcinoma located in the uterine fundus. The tumor exhibited intense hypermetabolism on 18F-FDG PET/CT. Based on the characteristic histologic features and immunohistochemical phenotypes, the diagnosis of mesonephric adenocarcinoma was confirmed. The patient underwent hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection, and no lymph node or distant metastasis was identified. After 20 months of surveillance without adjuvant therapy, she remains free of relapse.
