Objective: A rare case of a mixed cervical carcinoma is described. Subject: Glassy-cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix in association with a bilateral benign superfi- cial serous papilloma of the ovary in a 44-year-old woman. Conclusion: The possible occurrence of aggressive tumours of the uterine cervix with emphasis on their adequate treatment is pointed out. At the same time the importance of a peroperative biopsy of suspect macroscopic findings on the ovaries is stressed. The paper reports on a previously unpublished case of simultaneous occurrence of the above mentioned tumours.
