Cervical cancer represents the second most frequent malignancy in women worldwide, a significant number of cases still being diagnosed in an advanced stage of the disease. In some of these cases, local invasion is already present at the moment of diagnosis and even if neo-adjuvant chemoirradiation is performed in some patients, it persists at the moment of surgery. In these cases, more aggressive surgical procedures are needed in order to obtain a good control of the disease. The case of a 50-year-old patient diagnosed with locally advanced cervical cancer invading the right ureter is presented, in whom this aspect was present even after neo-adjuvant chemoirradiation and in whom a total radical hysterectomy with bilateral en bloc adnexectomy with partial cystectomy and the invaded zone of the right ureter was performed. The ureter was then mobilized and reimplanted in the urinary bladder through a neocystostomy. The postoperative course was uneventful.
