Skin metastases from internal malignancies are rare, particularly those originating from carcinoma of the cervix uteri.
A 58-year-old woman with cutaneous metastases from the cervix on her right buttock is described. She presented to our hospital with postmenopausal bleeding in 1982. Biopsy showed squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the cervix uteri. She was treated by total hysterectomy with bilateral lymphoadenectomy. She came to our clinic on Dec. 2, 1991 with a red-colored, hard, painful, dome-shaped nodule on her right buttock of one year's duration. Histopathological and clinical examination revealed that the tumor was metastatic squamous cell carcinoma from the cervix uteri.
