RESUMEN
Endometrial squamous cell carcinoma is extremely rare. In 1928 Fluhmann proposed three criteria to establish the diagnosis of endometrial squamous cell carcinoma: (1) no coexisting endometrial adenocarcinoma, (2) no connection between the endometrial tumor and the squamous epithelium of the cervix, and (3) no squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix present. More recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) updated Fluhmann's criteria by adding that the tumor must contain clear evidence of squamous differentiation, such as the presence of intercellular bridges and/or keratin. We presented a case of carcinoma in situ of endocervix and endometrial squamous cell carcinoma involving full thickness of whole endometrium with a review of literature.

Primary peritoneal cancer is a rare tumor, which may be mesothelial or mullerian in nature. It can develop from unifocal or multifocal origin and the clinical and histologic disease entities are similar to those of primary papillary serous carcinoma of the ovary, but the main features of primary peritoneal cancer are widely disseminated malignancy along the peritoneal surfaces, the omentum, and abdominal viecera, with minimal or no ovarian involvement. Recently investigators have analyzed the morphology of these tumors and have used histochemical, eletron microscopic and immunohistologic techniques in an attempt to identify, characterize, and categorize. We have experienced a case of a primary peritoneal cancer which developed in the patient who had probably a previous total hysterectomy and both salpingooophorectomy.
