Management of an Unusual Metastasis of Cervical Cancer in the Adrenal Bed With Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation Therapy.
Curēus 2022 Februrary
Uterine cervical carcinoma is an important type of cancer among Ecuadorian women, especially in adult women. Survival rates have improved with the development of radiotherapy, surgical techniques, and chemotherapy. However, recurrence and/or metastasis are not unusual phenomena. Frequent sites of metastasis are the lungs, regional lymph nodes, and bones. Atypical locations can also occur on solid organs, such as adrenal glands. Treatment for the rare complication that is adrenal metastasis is individualized, it can include surgical resection, chemotherapy, local ablation, or different types of radiotherapy. We aimed to report a case of an Ecuadorian woman from Quito city with a diagnosis of cervical carcinoma diagnosed in 2009, treated surgically and with adjuvant chemotherapy. Her progression was monitored with medical controls with no recurrence until 2018, when she relapsed with a metastatic invasion of the pelvic ganglia and the surroundings of the abdominal aorta, with a histopathologic diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. She was then treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy until June 2019. In 2020, she went through a splenectomy and left adrenalectomy to treat vascular thrombosis. In 2021, 37 x 15 mm mass was discovered in the surgical bed of the previously removed adrenal gland. It was treated as an oligometastatic carcinoma with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) by a linear accelerator.
