	abstract = {Background.: Neoplastic meningitis in patients with carcinoma of the uterine cervix is unusual in the course of their diseases. Even more unusual are intramedullary spinal metastases. Case.: We report the case of a 64-year-old woman who presented with leptomeningeal and intramedullary spinal cord metastases from a grade 2 squamous cell cancer of the uterine cervix. This is just the second case of intramedullary metastases from cervical carcinoma. Conclusion.: Neoplastic meningitis or intramedullary metastases are extremely rare in the course of uterine cervix carcinoma. Nevertheless, when indicated by symptoms, patients should undergo MRI of the brain and/or spine and have a lumbar puncture performed, for the diagnosis of this devastating complication. Treatment is mainly palliative but may offer symptom relief. {\textcopyright} 2006.},
