Abstract
The 37-year-old female patient complained of a small amount of vaginal bleeding with discharge, obvious after sexual intercourse. Ultrasonography indicated that there was a low echo area in the cervix, with clear boundary, irregular shape, and rich blood flow signals. Gynecological examination showed that the cervix was 4 cm in diameter with cauliflower surface and contact bleeding. She underwent cervical biopsy under colposcope. Pathological findings: (cervical tissue) invasive squamous cell carcinoma. Physical examination after admission revealed a cervical soft mass with a diameter of 5 cm and contact bleeding.
