“…[3] Such unusual sites of distant metastatic involvement are clavicle, scapula, fibula, tarsal and metatarsal bones and innominate bones, and extremely rarely to the jaw bone. [4][5][6] Occurrence of metastases from primary distal malignancies to the jaw is a rare scenario, and these are usually carcinomas, consistent with malignancies of epithelial origin in more than 80% of cases. [7] Jaw metastases constitute less than 1% of all bone metastases, most common primary site being breast in females and lung in males.…”

“…Long bone metastasis attributable to hematogenous disease is rare. Lungs are the most common site of hematogenous spread and are involved in a patient presenting with bony metastasis [7]. 75-80% of patients are lost within one year of diagnosis with bony metastases due to pulmonary or other complications [7,8].…”

Background: Cancer cervix is known to spread to distant sites including bones. Long bone metastasis is relatively rare and only handful of cases have been reported. Therefore, bone scan is routinely used in staging of cancer cervix. We report a rare case of cancer cervix with controlled primary and isolated metastasis to femur. Case Report: A 45 year female patient of cancer cervix IIB was treated by chemo-radiotherapy to pelvis and para-aortic region. On follow up, she developed isolated bone lesion in upper 1/3 rd of femur. Femoral involvement was histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma, consistent with the primary pathology. She was treated by surgical resection of metastatic disease with total hip replacement, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Presently she is on follow up for 10 months and asymptomatic. Conclusion: Bony metastasis may reduce the survival significantly and therefore early diagnosis and adequate treatment may lead to better quality of life in these patients.

We present a case of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma cervix with solitary bone metastases to the right tibia and multiple cutaneous metastases. A woman aged 52 years with cancer of the cervix and lung metastases, after 21 months of initial diagnosis and palliative chemotherapy presented with pain in the right knee and multiple nodular skin lesions. Bone scintigraphy revealed intense increased tracer activity in the proximal and mid shaft of the right tibia. Biopsy from the tibial lesion confirmed metastatic squamous cell carcinoma. The presentation, diagnosis and management of this rare case are discussed.
