A large lobulated soft tissue mass with heterogeneous enhancement (measuring 10 x 8 x 7 cm) centered on the uterine cervix, invading the uterine cavity, upper 2/3 of the vagina and compressing the left lower ureter. No apparent extension to the anterior rectal wall or posterior bladder wall. No pelvic or para-aortic lymphadenopathy.

Case Discussion
CT features of a large soft tissue mass centered on the cervix, invading the uterine cavity and upper 2/3 of the vagina with a metastatic lesion of the right iliac bone, histologically proven as adenocarcinoma.
Adenocarcinoma of the cervix is a histological subtype of carcinoma of the cervix. It is less common than squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of the cervix, accounting for ~12.5% of all cervical cancer.
