Cureus. 2020 Jan 2;12(1):e6544. doi: 10.7759/cureus.6544.

Abstract

We herein report a unique case of a large cell neuroendocrine tumor in a female presenting with right upper quadrant pain. She was found to have multiple metastatic lesions in the liver noted on imaging and underwent workup for malignancy of unknown origin. The initial differential diagnoses included gastrointestinal, urothelial, genital, or breast primary sites. The cervical biopsy results were consistent with large cell neuroendocrine tumor, and the patient was subsequently started on chemotherapy.

Keywords: cervical cancer; large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma.
