Abstrakt: Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare pathological entity of the cervix. A case of FIGO stage III sarcomatoid carcinoma of the cervix is reported. The patient was treated with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Despite the initial excellent local response to therapy, she developed an early metastatic disease. In a review of the published studies, only 19 cases were reported on this type of cervical cancer.
