ABSTRACT

While breast cancer can metastasize to the ovaries and body of the uterus, it is rare to be found in the cervix. We report a case with known lobular carcinoma of the breast who presented in labor with metastatic breast disease. On examination she was found to have a fungating mass in her cervix. Histology confirmed that the tumor was a metastasis from her breast carcinoma

ABSTRACT

Las metástasis de carcinomas extragenitales al útero es rara y el compromiso al cuello uterino es excepcional, especialmente del tipo histológico de carcinoma de células en anillo de sello. Se presentan tres casos encontrados en 240 adenocarcinomas cervicales (1,25 por ciento) diagnosticados entre 1979-2012. Dos casos se presentaron en pacientes de 48 y 56 años originados en carcinomas lobulillares infiltrantes de la mama diagnosticados previamente. La primera paciente está viva a 19 meses del diagnóstico ginecológico y la segunda falleció a los 14 meses, siendo en ambas un hallazgo histológico incidental en cirugías realizadas por patología ginecológica benigna. El tercer caso se presentó en una paciente de 43 años que debutó por metrorragia y tumor cervical y fue originado en un carcinoma gástrico infiltrante difuso, encontrado en forma sincrónica y fallece a los 2 meses del diagnóstico. Se revisan los criterios diagnósticos entre metástasis y carcinoma primario de células en anillo de sello del cuello uterino y el aporte al diagnóstico de la histología convencional, la inmunohistoquímica y la tipificación molecular de HPV. Conclusión: Se concluye que la metástasis de carcinoma de células en anillo al cuello uterino es rara y el pronóstico es malo. La citoreducción y la quimioterapia podría tener un rol para casos seleccionados de carcinomas metastásicos de origen mamario y que estos casos no deberían ser considerados un evento preterminal.


The uterine metastatic involving of extragenital carcinomas is rare, especially the signetring cell type. Three of such a cases were found in 240 cases of adenocarcinomas of uterine cervix (1.25 percent) diagnosed between 1979-2012. Two of these cases occurred in patients aged 48 and 56 years with infiltrating lobular carcinomas arising in the breast previously diagnosed. The first patient is alive at 19 months after diagnosis and the second is deceased at 14 months after diagnosis. In both cases, the metastasis to the cervix was an incidental histological finding in surgeries performed by benign gynecological pathology. The third case was identified in a 43-years old patient who debuted with metrorrhagia and cervical tumor which was originated in a diffuse infiltrating gastric carcinoma that was found synchronously and she is dead at 2 months after diagnosis. The diagnostic criteria between metastases and primary cervix carcinoma of signet ring cells and the contribution to the diagnosis of conventional histology, immunohistochemistry and molecular typing of HPV are reviewed. The metastasis of signet ring cell carcinoma to the uterine cervix is rare and the survival is poor. Conclusion: The role of cytoreduction and chemotherapy for selected cases of metastasis from breast carcinomas should be considered and in such a case the gynecological involvement should not be considered a preterminal event.

ABSTRACT

El carcinoma de colon y recto da metástasis da por extensión directa, infiltración ganglionar linfática, vía hematógena, gravitacional, perineural e intraluminal. Su diagnóstico se realiza por medio del antígeno carcinoembriónico, Rx de tórax, ultrasonido, gammagrama óseo, laparoscopia y tomografía axial computadorizada. Los sitios principalmente afectados son hígado, pulmón, ovario, cerebro y músculo esquelético; aunque otros órganos y sitios menos frecuentes pudieram estar involucrados como el que presentamos en cuello uterino. No encontramos en la literatura en los últimos 10 años otro caso similar

ABSTRACT

Os autores estudam uma criança de três anos de idade com neoplasia indiferenciada na vulva com metástase cervical com provável extensäo pélvica. A microscopia ótica e eletrônica sugere ser o tumor do sistema APUD semelhante ao neuroblastoma
