BORGES, José Pedro Coutinho et al. Carcinoma in situ of the cervix with superficial extension to the endometrium. []. , 12, 1, pp.75-77. ISSN 1646-5830.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most frequent histological type of cervical cancer. It generally invades directly into the uterine wall but, in rare cases, spreads superficially to the inner surface of the uterus, replacing the endometrium, known as superficial spreading SCC. The authors present a rare case of a postmenopausal woman with carcinoma in situ of the cervix with superficial extension through the totality of the uterine cavity, including fundus. SCC is a rare entity which staging, prognosis and management guidelines have not been described
