Abstract

Endometrial carcinoma is a common gynecologic malignancy; however, metastasis to the small bowel is rare. Metastatic endometrial carcinoma usually occurs through local extension rather than distant metastasis. Isolated small bowel metastasis is extremely rare; further, intussusception with resultant intestinal obstruction is not common. We report the imaging findings of a patient with isolated small bowel metastasis of endometrial carcinoma with resultant jejunojejunal intussusception.
