A Presentation of Rare Case of Carcinoma of the Cervix - Cervical Lymphadenopathy (Case Report)

Lymphadenopathy of the cervical lymph nodes is referred to as cervical lymphadenopathy (the glands in the neck).Carcinoma of the cervix commonly metastasizes by direct extension or lymphatic dissemination within the pelvis. Clinical presentation of carcinoma of the cervix as cervical lymphadenopathy has not been described before. We report a case of this unusual manifestation of cervical cancer. Although cervical carcinoma recurrences have been reported in the past as lymphadenopathy, this is the first report of cervical carcinoma presenting clinically as cervical lymph adenopathy. Despite the rarity, metastasis from the cervix to the cervical lymph nodes can be understood by describing how the lymphatic system drains from the cervix
