Solitary transverse colon metastasis: A rare case of uterine cervical cancer recurrence

A 44-years-old, Japanese woman underwent radical hysterectomy, preoperative chemotherapy and postoperative radiotherapy for uterine cervical cancer. She complained an abdominal palpable mass. The resection of transverse colon was performed. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was metastasis of uterine cancer without peritoneal dissemination. There have been few reports of metastatic colon cancer and most of them were gastric or lung cancer. We report a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix metastatic to transverse colon.
