Splenic metastasis from squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix is an unusual event in the natural history of the disease. The authors report one such uncommon occurrence in a 41-year-old female who presented initially with cervical carcinoma (stage lIB) and was treated with radical radiotherapy with concurrent weekly chemotherapy. Following a disease-free interval of less than a year, she developed hepatosplenic metastases despite being locally controlled. The literature relevant to the report is also discussed. This report reaffirms the notion that splenic metastases from cervical carcinoma are rare events but can occur as part of widespread dissemination.:
