Background: Endometrial carcinoma is seen commonly in the women of postmenopausal age group (Dalal et al. in Indian J Gynecol Oncolog 18:57, 2020). Usually, it is diagnosed and detected at an early stage with very high chances of survival. Uterine cancer primarily drains into the pelvic and retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Purpose: Involvement of axillary and retropectoral lymph nodes is not heard in carcinoma endometrium. We present this case where the lady presented as case of carcinoma endometrium with a past history of chikungunya fever with widespread lymphadenopathy with positive positron emission tomography scan (PET) which created diagnostic dilemma about management. Conclusion: Sometimes the reports and imaging may create diagnostic dilemma. Hence the history taking and counselling is of prime importance. |
