Abstract
We present a rare case of the combination of cervical cancer and unilateral complete aplasia of the uterine adnexa. Female genital tract anomalies account for about 4% of all congenital malformations.
Congenital malformations of the adnexa are very rare, accounting for less than 0.5%. In the presented case, this abnormality was found incidentally during surgery for cervical cancer. Medical genetic counseling confirmed the presence of the isolated congenital pathology.
