Abstract

A 61-year old female was found to have an endometrial cancer with surgical stage Ib, grade 2. Treatment involves surgical resection followed by radiation therapy. In the middle of adjuvant radiation therapy she complained of undifined headache and tongue deviation those came from multiple skull and skeletal metastasis. Although she received the adjuvant chemo-radiation therapy but failed. Therefore we reported a case of early endometrial cancer that unusually showed multiple bone metastasis with discussion about the pretreatment evaluation for bone metastasis.
