Surgical Approach of Cervical Cancer Liver Metastases: Case Report

Abstract

Nicolae Bacalbasa and Irina Balescu

Cervical cancer is an aggressive malignancy with a high tendency of invasion of the surrounding organs and also with capacity to give birth to metastases on both lymphatic and hematogenous routes. Cases who present distant metastases at the moment of diagnosis are generally referred to the medical oncologist than to the surgeon; however increasing reports on the benefit of liver surgery in non-colorectal non-neuroendocrine liver metastases have decreased the general reluctance to perform radical visa surgery on such cases. We present the case of a 53 years old female diagnosed with cervical cancer and liver metastases in which a radical resection was performed with good oncologic outcomes.
