Endometrial cancer with bone marrow metastases: a management dilemma

Abstract

Abstract A case is presented of a 67-year-old woman referred to the authors’ institution with endometrioid endometrial cancer with a leucoerythroblastic blood film and marked thrombocytopenia. On further evaluation, it was confirmed that she had grade 3 endometrial cancer with bone marrow involvement (FIGO stage IVB). This is a rare complication of endometrial cancer and her marked thrombocytopenia severely limited her treatment options.
