Description

Metastases to the cervix from a non-gynecological neoplasm are extremely rare. Only four cases of primary carcinoma of gallbladder with metastasis to the cervix have been reported [1]. We reported a case of a 52-year-old woman operated on 2 years earlier for a primary gallbladder adenocarcinoma, the evolution was marked by the appearance of left lumbar pain radiating towards the left flank with vaginal bleeding. A biopsy with immunohistochemical complement confirmed the diagnosis of secondary location of gallbladder adenocarcinoma. Pelvic MRI shows a lesion in the cervix and a left ureteral compression with left hydronephrosis. A placement of a double J probe, with radiotherapy and radiological control was decided for this patient at first.
