case_images: On the basis of these findings, the tumor was diagnosed as a GCC (Fig. 1A, B), and a careful examination was conducted because of the possibility of some residual cancer.
case_images: A coronal 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography scan showing significant FDG uptake in the (A) retroperitoneal and supraclavicular lymph nodes, (B) paraaortic lymph nodes, and (C) pelvic lymph node.

case_images: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 18-fludeooxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18-FDG PET/CT) scans showed multiple retroperitoneal and supraclavicular lymph node metastases, although no residual tumor was found in the uterus (Fig. 2A-C).
case_images: Radiological and serological response during chemotherapy consisting of docetaxel and carboplatin (DC). The duration of the response and the progression free survival were 73 days and 128 days, respectively. The radiological response was evaluated according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The sum of the diameters in the short axis of the left paraaortic and right external iliac lymph nodes is shown.

case_images: The duration of the response was therefore 73 days, and progression free survival (PFS) after DC was 128 days (Fig. 3).
