Abstract
|
|
|
|
The uterus is an unusual site for metastasis from an extrapelvic neoplasm. Metastasis of gastric cancer to the uterus is rare. We experienced a patient who underwent a gastrectomy and chemotherapy due to gastric cancer and who subsequently suffered a solitary metastatic adenocarcinoma of the uterus from the primary gastric cancer. Similar to Krukenberg tumors of the ovary, lymphatic dissemination is regarded as the route of metastasis from the stomach to the uterine. We report this case with a brief review of literature.
