Gastric Metastasis from Gastric-Type Mucinous Adenocarcinoma of Uterine Cervix: A Case Report.

Gastric metastasis (GM) from cervical cancer is extremely rare, and only a few cases have been reported in the English literature. Gastric-type mucinous adenocarcinomas (GAS) of the uterine cervix are rare. GAS is an aggressive cancer commonly found in advanced stages; however, GM has not been reported. This study presents a rare case of GM from GAS of the uterine cervix in a 61-year-old female and describes the radiological findings of both the GM and cervical mucinous adenocarcinoma. GM appeared as a poor enhancing submucosal mass. The cervical mucinous adenocarcinoma appeared as an infiltrating mass with poor contrast enhancement. It exhibited mildly high and low signal intensities on the diffusion-weighted image and apparent diffusion coefficient map, respectively. This case is extremely rare and challenging to diagnose; however, if cervical cancer is an human papillomavirus-independent GAS type and a submucosal lesion is found in the stomach, the possibility of metastasis with a pattern similar to our case could be considered.
