Uterine cervical cancers customarily spread by local extension to the adjacent viscera or through lymphatic embolization to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Distant hematogenous spread particularly to the brain is an uncommon and late event which heralds a poor prognosis. We report a case of uterine squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix with unusual simultaneous presentation of cavernous sinus metastasis and multiple brain metastases while reviewing the current literature on this clinical entity.
子宫颈癌通常通过局部蔓延至邻近脏器，或经淋巴栓塞转移至腹膜后淋巴结。远处血行转移，尤其是转移至脑部，是一种罕见的晚期事件，预示着预后不良。我们报告一例子宫颈鳞状细胞癌病例，该病例同时出现了海绵窦转移和多发性脑转移，实属罕见，同时我们还回顾了关于这一临床实体的当前文献。
