摘要:Malignant transformation of endometriosis in extraovarian sites remains rare. Furthermore, the process is not definitely understood. Herein, we report the case of a 40-year-old premenopausal nulligravida woman who presented with vaginal bleeding and who was finally diagnosed with a vaginal cancer originating from endometriosis and with a synchronous endometrial cancer. A gynecologic examination revealed a multiple polypoid mass on the posterior vaginal fornix. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the pelvis showed two masses abutting respectively on the anterior uterine wall, and in the rectovaginal septum. The patient underwent a total laparoscopic excision of the rectovaginal mass, radical hysterectomy and low anterior resection of the rectum. The lesions were diagnosed as endometriosis, endometriosis-associated complex hyperplasia and endometrioid cancer. Furthermore, a synchronous endometrioid endometrial cancer was reported. This case revealed the multistep process of malignant transformation of deep infiltrating endometriosis. The progression was individualized between implantation sites and in the same organ.
