Carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a common neoplasm; however skin metastasis from carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a very rare occurrence, varying from 0.1% to 2%. The common primary sites in patients with skin metastasis are the breast, lung, large intestine and ovary. The interval between the diagnosis of cervical cancer and skin lesions ranges from 0 to 69 months, and they present as nodules in 86,7%. Skin metastasis represents a late manifestation of advanced disease with poor prognosis. We present a case of scalp metastasis from carcinoma of the uterine cervix . The patient was 43 years old, had a diagnosis of undifferentiated epidermoid carcinoma of the uterine cervix. Six months after radical surgery she presented with vaginal recurrence, being treated with pelvic radiotherapy. Four months later three painless metastatic nodules appeared at the scalp.
