Unusual metastasis in carcinoma of the cervix uteri

In six patients, unusual metastases developed after definitive therapy for carcinoma of the cervix; three cutaneous, two biliary and one duodenal. The prognosis when such metastases develop is grave, although one patient is alive and well without evidence of carcinoma two and one-half years after the detection of the cutaneous lesion. Although the surgical approach is usually not curative, it is worth while for relief of symptoms.
