Cervical Cancer Differential Diagnoses Author: Cecelia H Boardman, MD; Chief Editor: Warner K Huh, MD more... Updated: Jul 1, 2013

Diagnostic Considerations In addition to the conditions listed in the differential diagnosis, other disorders to consider in a woman with possible cervical cancer include the following: Cervicitis/infection, particularly granulomatous (which is rare) Primary melanoma and Paget disease Vaginal cancer Another rare possibility is that a primary cancer elsewhere in the body has metastasized to the cervix.

Differential Diagnoses Cervicitis Endometrial Carcinoma Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Vaginitis
