  • Title: Ovarian metastasis of stage IB1 squamous cell cancer of the cervix after radical parametrectomy and oophoropexy.
    Author: Nguyen L, Brewer CA, DiSaia PJ.
    Journal: Gynecol Oncol; 1998 Feb; 68(2):198-200. PubMed ID: 9514804.
    Abstract:
    We present a case report of a patient with a IB1 cervical squamous cell cancer which recurred in a transposed ovary 8 years following radical parametrectomy. The patient was initially treated with a simple vaginal hysterectomy for apparent CIS but was found to have an invasive squamous cell cancer to a depth of 7 mm into the stroma. She was treated with a radical parametrectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy, and ovarian transposition. There was no evidence of residual disease. The patient then had an apparent isolated recurrence in her left ovary 8 years later. Although there are a few cases of stage IB squamous cell cancer metastatic to a transposed ovary, this is the first case with such minimal primary disease and delayed isolated recurrence.
