Abstract: About 90% of endometrial cancer is adenocarcinoma which arises from uterine epithelium. Rest of 10% are comprises of adenocarcinoma with squamous differentiation, adenosquamous carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, and papillary serous carcinoma. Rare tumors of mesenchymal origin (Uterine sarcomas) are approximately 2-6% of all uterine malignant tumors [1]. Papillary serous adenocarcinoma of the uterus is a tumor seen as papillary projections and many times demonstrates psammoma bodies that can calcify [2]. Majority of papillary serous adenocarcinomas are seen in the ovary, CT can easily demonstrate calcified psammoma bodies. Serous adenocarcinoma is uncommon in the endometrium [3]. We report a case of a serous adenocarcinoma of the endometrium with incidentally noted mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary.
