Abstract EN
There are limited data about the cutaneous metastases of gynecological malignancies in the literature.
Based on this limited number of studies, cutaneous metastases from gynecological malignancies are uncommon occurrences.
Cutaneous metastases from the synchronous endometrioid carcinoma of the uterine corpus and bilateral ovaries arising from endometriosis are extremely rare.
Herein, we report a 51-year-old woman with FIGO Stage 1A Grade 1 endometrial endometrioid-type adenocarcinoma and synchronous bilateral Stage 1B ovarian endometrioid-type adenocarcinoma who presented 34 months following total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with skin metastases.
After the patient underwent an excisional biopsy, we applied a palliative radiotherapy.
The patient received the combination therapy with cisplatin and doxorubicin after the completion of radiotherapy but the disease evolution was rapidly fatal and the patient died 4 months after her admission to our department due to widely disseminated disease.
