Abstract :

Metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma of cervix to colon is very rare. A few isolated cases with metastasis in stomach, small intestine and sigmoid colon have been reported in the past. We report a case of ca cervix presenting metastasis in ascending colon. The patient had received radical chemo–radiation for carcinoma cervix stage IIB. After a disease free survival of 4 years patient presented with acute abdominal pain. Colonoscopy was suggestive of growth in hepatic flexure. She underwent right hemi–colectomy with ileal transverse anastomosis. Histopathology was suggestive of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. The patient is symptom free one year post–surgery and under observation.
