Cutaneous lymphangitic carcinomatosis from cervical cancer

Abstract

Abstract We report a case of cutaneous lymphangitic carcinomatosis arising from cervical cancer in a 66‐year‐old woman. No standardized treatment protocol currently exists for cutaneous lymphangitic carcinomatosis; in our case, treatment with carboplatin and paclitaxel induced a positive clinical skin response, but the patient passed away from metastatic disease.
