[Isolated metastases of cervical cancer to the abdominal wall--a case report].
We described an unusual case of skin metastases of the uterine cervix in 63 year old woman. Previously, she was found having a Stage IIa squamous carcinoma of the cervix. She underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, total abdominal hysterectomy and pelvic node dissection. Then the patient was treated by external and intracavitary radiation. Within the next six months she was readmitted to the hospital because of abdominal pain and urinary stress incontinence after irradiation. The examination revealed three firm, freely-movable, solid subcutaneous nodules on the abdominal wall, umbilical site and urinary fistula. No other significant physical phenomena were noted. Radical excision of all the lesions was conducted and followed by four courses of adjuvant chemotherapy. Histopathological examination of the excised nodules revealed nests of squamous cell carcinoma, which were histologically identical to the previous carcinoma of the cervix. After successful treatment, the patient was continued for three months now, without any clinical evidence of recrudescence, and with good results from the urinary fistula treatment. Moreover, in these case-report we presented a review of current literature about new techniques and treatment methods of the cervical carcinomas.
