A Rare Metastasis to the Stomach From Cervical Cancer: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality among females. The common sites of metastasis from cervical cancer include the lungs, bones, and liver. Gastric metastases are rare and are associated with poor prognosis. Gastric metastases most commonly arise from breast and lung cancers. However, metastasis from primary cervical cancer is extremely rare and has been reported only in a few cases in the literature to date. We present the case of a 55-year-old female with a history of advanced cervical cancer who presented with features of gastric outlet obstruction and gastrointestinal bleeding. Endoscopy revealed an infiltrating mass in the stomach and pylorus/duodenum, with biopsy confirming squamous gastric carcinoma of metastatic origin. When patients with cervical cancer present with upper gastrointestinal symptoms, the possibility of metastatic gastric involvement should be considered.
