ABSTRACT

Malignant melanoma is a rare cancer, its incidence being 1% of all cancers. Malignant melanoma of the female genital tract is even rarer with incidence of 3% to 7% of all malignant melanomas. It usually occurs in postmenopausal women. We present a case of malignant melanoma of the uterine cervix in a multiparous premenopausal 29 year old female. She underwent a modified radical hysterectomy. She was stage III and was treated with external beam radiotherapy to the pelvis followed by brachytherapy. Since then the patient was on regular follow up until she developed lung metastasis. Malignant melanoma of the cervix has very less data in literature. Through this case report we will emphasize on the role of radiotherapy in malignant melanoma of uterine cervix.
