Incisional site metastasis in abdominal malignancy following laparotomy is uncommon and extremely rare in cervical cancer. The prognosis is poor in these patients, as they also present with distant organ metastasis. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix in a 40-year-old woman pri...

description Incisional site metastasis in abdominal malignancy following laparotomy is uncommon and extremely rare in cervical cancer. The prognosis is poor in these patients, as they also present with distant organ metastasis. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix in a 40-year-old woman primarily treated with radical hysterectomy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Later on, she presented with incisional scar site recurrence and underwent surgical excision of the metastatic site several times along with chemotherapy. She has been in stable condition for nearly 10 years since her first recurrence. We highlighted the management strategies of this patient that contributed to her longevity.
