We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix metastasizing to the duodenum through lymphatics. Para-aortic group of lymph nodes were involved which ultimately infiltrated the duodenum. On endoscopic examination, peri-ampullary growth was noted. Endoscopic biopsy from the growth was studied by routine histopathology and metastasis of squamous cell carcinoma involving duodenum was reported.
