Abstract

Neuroendocrine cervical carcinoma (NECC) is a rare type of cervical cancer, with high tendency of lymphatic and distant metastasis and poor prognosis. Herein, we reported a rare case of relapsed NECC metastasizing to palatine tonsil and subcutaneous adipose tissue in multiple regions, which reflects the aggressive biological behavior of NECC.
