Progression from nodular to lymphangitic subcutaneous metastasis from clear cell endometrial carcinoma: CT findings

A La Fianza et al. Tumori. 1998 May-Jun.

Abstract

Subcutaneous metastases from clear cell endometrial carcinoma are an uncommon event and tumor implantations are rarely found with diagnostic imaging techniques. The nodular form is the most frequent type of subcutaneous metastasis from genital system tumors, even though plaque-like and infiltrative forms have also been reported. We report the first case of subcutaneous metastasis from clear cell endometrial carcinoma whose progression from the early nodular to the lymphangitic infiltrative form was studied with computed tomography (CT). Differential diagnostic problems are discussed.
