What Could Cause Concurrence Of Breast Cancer And Abnormality In PAP Smear, Also Have Undergone Hysterectomy?

Yes. I had an abnormal pap smear and it states in the pathology report that there is a presence of ASC-US atypical squamous cells-undetermined significance. I have had a hysterectomy and have just been diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Is this just a fluke that this would happen simutanously?

it is usually coincidence and breast and cervical cancer doesn't occur together that commonly than seen breast with ovary or endometrial cancer as these are hormone related. and cervical cancer is viral infection related.
