Unusual Extension of Superficial Spreading Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Cervix to Uterus, Paraovarian, Paratubal Tissue, and Vaginal Surface: A Unique Case Report.

Superficial spreading cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare phenomenon with few cases reported in the literature. The present case report briefs the findings of superficial spreading cervical SCC in postmenopausal women. A 65-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with bleeding per-vaginum for 1-2 months. On examination, the cervix was healthy with no visible growth. She was diagnosed with an endometrial malignancy on magnetic resonance imaging. On endometrial and cervical biopsy, histopathology revealed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia III in ectocervix with SCC in endocervical and endometrial curetting. The patient underwent modified radical hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy and histopathology revealed superficially spreading cervical SCC with tumor cells involving endometrium, myometrium, paratubal, paraovarian, vaginal margins without extending to pelvic, and para-aortic lymph nodes. The patient was further managed successfully with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Superficial spreading cervical SCC is very rare phenomenon. Its spread is not only limited to endometrium but can extend to involve myometrium, paratubal, paraovarian, and vaginal tissues.
