PROGRESSION FROM NODULAR TO LYMPHANGITIC SUBCUTANEOUS METASTASIS FROMCLEAR-CELL ENDOMETRIAL CARCINOMA - CT FINDINGS

Subcutaneous metastases from clear cell endometrial carcinoma are an u ncommon event and tumor implantations are rarely found with diagnostic imaging techniques, The nodular form is the most frequent type of sub cutaneous metastasis from genital system tumors, even though plaque-li ke 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 infiltra tive form was studied with computed tomography (CT). Differential diag nostic problems are discussed.
