Scalp, skull and brain metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix – a rare entity

Abstract

Metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix on the scalp has been reported only six times in the literature; however, we found no reports of metastasis on the scalp associated with skull and brain invasion. We present an exceptionally rare case with good evolution after neurosurgical resection.
