Retroperitoneal fibrosis simulating carcinoma of the cervix. 1979

H G Bramm, and R P Griffith, and T H Griffith, and W J Shasteen

Retroperitoneal fibrosis generally occurs above the pelvic brim and is rarely encountered by the gynecologist. In the case presented, the fibrosis first became manifest in the pelvis and simulated metastatic carcinoma of the cervix. Treatment with cyclophosphamide and prednisone produced an apparent remission.
