Abstract

Incisional metastases following surgery for cervical cancer are extremely rare. We report a case of a recurrence which occurred at a incisional site following radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix. The recurrence was found at the incisional site just below umbilicus that was not included for post-operative adjuvant radiotherapy. We performed wide local excision and postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for 5 weeks. She has been under follow up until now, and there is no evidence of recurrence.

Key Words: Incisional metastasis, Cervical cancer
