Cervical cancers spread locally through the angiolymphatic apparatus and very rarely metastasize to the brain. The intracranial metastasis is a late event and a sign of poor prognosis. We present two cases of uterine cervical carcinomas with brain metastasis presenting with severe headaches in one case and hemiparesis and aphasia in the other one. Palliative craniotomy and debulking of the tumor was performed in both patients.
宫颈癌通过血管淋巴系统在局部扩散,极少转移至脑。颅内转移是晚期事件,也是预后不良的标志。我们报告两例子宫颈癌脑转移病例,其中一例表现为严重头痛,另一例表现为偏瘫和失语。两名患者均接受了姑息性开颅手术及肿瘤减瘤术。
