Abstract

Cervix carcinoma is the fourth most common cancer in women in the world. In 30 % of patients recurrence occurs in the first 2 years. It is mostly recurs in parametrium, pelvic lymph nodes and vagina respectively. It metastasizes most frequently to liver, lung and bones. Metastasis to soft tissue, skeletal muscle or abdominal wall is too rare. In the literature, it has been reported tumor involvement of the entrance of drainage catheter or abdominal wall incision or entrance of ports after laparoscopy. We have reported here 2 cases of abdominal wall metastasis of squamous cell cervix carcinoma since it was seen rarely.
