title: Skin metastases from cervical cancer: a fatal event.
abstract: Cutaneous metastases from gynecologic malignancies other than ovarian cancer are extremely uncommon. Metastases to the skin, even in advanced cases of cervical cancer, have rarely been reported with only eight previous cases since 1940. Three patients with cutaneous metastases to the abdominal wall as a preterminal event are reported.
