Cutaneous metastases from carcinoma of the cervix.
Skin metastases from internal malignancies are rare, particularly those originating from carcinoma of the cervix: only 11 cases have been reported in the medical literature since 1940. We describe the case of a cutaneous metastases from a squamous-cell carcinoma of the cervix that was solitary, unusual for its location, and with the longest survival reported so far.
