Carcinoma Cervix with Cutaneous Metastasis: A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Cutaneous metastasis is an uncommon entity in gynecologic cancer. Though carcinoma cervix is the commonest female malignancy in the developing countries, cutaneous involvement of cervical cancer is particularly unusual, even in the terminal stage of the disease. The incidence of cutaneous metastasis in carcinoma cervix ranges from 0.1% to 2%. Here we present a case of cutaneous metastasis to anterior abdominal wall from carcinoma cervix after 18 months of completion of treatment with chemoradiation. She was treated with six cycles of chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin, followed by external beam radiotherapy to cutaneous presentation area. This case is reported due to its rarity and for documentation.
