    Isolated jejunal metastasis in a patient with cervical cancer: A case report
    (2015) Onal, Cem; Nursal, Gul Nihal; Torer, Nurkan; Kayaselcuk, Fazilet; 25949229
    Background: In approximately 8% of cervical carcinoma patients, gastrointestinal tract is involved, most commonly the rectosigmoid portion, because of local extension. Isolated metastases to small bowel are exceedingly rare. Case report: We present a case of a 63-year-old woman with cervical cancer who developed isolated jejunal metastasis 8 months after postoperative chemoradiotherapy. The patient was alive with no evidence of disease 6 months after resection of metastasis. Very few cases have been reported concerning squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix with documented metastases to the small bowel. There is only one published case report of cervical cancer with multiple metastases to the small intestine and jejunum. To our knowledge, this is the first case of cervical cancer with isolated jejunal metastasis, which was initially demonstrated with positron emission tomography and confirmed histopathologically. Conclusion: Although the exact mechanism underlying the isolated metastasis is unknown, hematogenous spread or tumor seeding during surgery may play a role. (C) 2015 Greater Poland Cancer Centre.

    (2017) Hasbay, Bermal; Aytac, Huseyin Ozgur; Kayaselcuk, Fazilet; Torun, Nese; 000-0002-1180-3840; 0000-0002-5597-676X; 29082381; AAE-2550-2021; AAE-2718-2021
    Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) are the common mesenchymal tumors of gastrointestinal tract. They can display benign and malignant clinical behavior. The most common metastasis sites of malignant stromal tumor are liver, peritoneum, lung and bones. Metastasis to breast is extremely rare. Here, we present a case of GIST with liver, bone, lymph node and breast metastasis by reviewing the literature.
