Abstract
The manifestation of a malignant melanoma in the uterus is very rare, more often it is the result of metastasis rather than a primary tumor. A malignant melanoma at this site can originate either from melanocytic elements within the cervical epithelium or from the cervical stroma. We report on two cases of primary malignant melanoma of the uterine cervix and compare them with other cases from the literature.Entities:
