Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Malignant melanoma is the sixth-most-common cancer in the United States and can spread throughout the body. This report represents the second case of a cutaneous melanoma involving a uterine leiomyoma.
CASE: A 49-year-old woman presented with an inguinal mass; biopsy revealed an undifferentiated neoplasm. Further examination and computed tomography revealed an enlarged, fibroid uterus. The patient underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and right inguinal lymphadenectomy. Histologic examination of the inguinal lymph node and the leiomyoma revealed metastatic melanoma.
CONCLUSION: As the incidence of melanoma increases, metastasis to unusual locations, such as uterine fibroids, probably will be encountered more frequently.
