Uterine metastasis from stomach cancer: radiological findings.
The uterus is an unusual site for metastasis from an extrapelvic neoplasm. We report a case of uterine metastasis with extensive calcification. Plain radiography, ultrasonography and CT showed diffuse calcification within the uterine wall and T2-weighted MR images showed abnormally high signal intensity of the entire myometrium.
