Endometrial cancer remains the most common gynecological tumor in women in the United States of America. The simultaneous finding of endometrial and ovarian neoplasm, as a synchronous tumor, accounts for about 5 - 10 % of endometrial and ovarian tumors. Therefore, is a rare entity. Consideration as restricted metastases or pseudometastasis to define the spread of this kind of tumor, is becoming more relevant nowadays thanks to the latest advances in the field of immunohistochemistry and molecular biology. In this article we present the case of a 57-year-old patient initially diagnosed with FIGO stage IIIA endometrial carcinoma; subsequently, it was a synchronous endometrial tumor stage IB and IC ovary, despite the presurgical suspicion of a metastatic tumor. Keywords: Endometrial Neoplasm, Ovarian Neoplasm, Synchronous Neoplasm, Multiple Primary Neoplasm, Neoplasm Metastasis.
