Abstract
About 400 thousand of new cases of endometrial cancer is registered in the world every year. Previously uncommon (for this type of malignancy) metastatic sites, such as brain or skin, have been observed over the past 15 years. Skin metastases of endometrial cancer are extremely rare and occur in less than 1 % of cases. We present a clinical case of atypical metastasis of endometrial cancer to the skin of the pubic region in a patient who underwent combined treatment.
