Abstract
A 58-year-old woman presented with long-standing headache. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass in the right occipital lobe, which was found to be a metastasis of an endometrial adenocarcinoma. Even though brain metastasis of endometrial carcinoma is extremely rare, it should be considered in patients presenting with a single brain mass.
Özet
58 yaşındaki kadın uzun süreli baş ağrısı ile başvurdu. MRI'da sağ oksipital lobda endometrial adenokarsinom metastazı olduğu tespit edilen kitle görüldü. Endometrium kanserinin beyin metastazı son derece nadir olmasına rağmen, soliter beyin metastazı ile başvuran hastalarda düşünülmelidir.
