Metastatic breast cancer to the cervix and myometrium

Invasive Ductal Breast Carcinoma Metastasis to the Uterine Cervix Presenting As Heavy Vaginal Bleeding: A Case Report and a Literature Review

Breast carcinoma metastasis to the uterine cervix is a rare occurrence with diagnostic intricacies. We present a case of a 38-year-old woman diagnosed with bilateral stages IIIA and IIIB invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast who developed heavy vaginal bleeding post-treatment, revealing metastatic involvement of the cervix, confirmed by CT imaging and pathological examination, as the presenting sign of widely metastatic disease. This case underscores the importance of a thorough review of systems and physical exams as well as considering uncommon metastatic sites in breast cancer patients.

The potential role of HER2 upregulation in metastatic breast cancer to the uterus: a case report

Abnormal uterine bleeding in a patient on maintenance hormonal therapy for breast cancer should raise concern for endometrial abnormalities including rare uterine metastasis from the breast. Hormonal receptor profile changes in metastatic lesions favoring human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression may be involved in the pathogenesis of metastasis to the uterus.
