Abstract:
Malignant melanomas of the uterus, either primary or metastatic, are extremely rare. They can be mistaken as other tumors, such as uterine sarcomas during diagnosis. We describe here the first case of a metastatic melanoma of the uterus with peritoneal seeding in a young woman. It was first diagnosed as a uterine sarcoma from a frozen-section biopsy.
