Abstract：
:The endometrial small cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with an estimated prevalence of less than 1% of endometrial carcinomas. Endometrial small cell carcinoma is frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage and has a poor prognosis. Although the most common presenting sign of ESCC is definitely a peri- or postmenopausal vaginal bleeding, we report for the first time the occurrence of tongue base bleeding as first manifestation of disseminated neuroendocrine ESCC. From a clinical viewpoint, tongue metastasis from primary endometrial carcinoma is a manifestation of widespread disease. Albeit, our patient underwent complete hysterectomy and postoperative chemotherapy, she died of disseminated disease 3 months after ESCC diagnosis.
