Endometrial adenocarcinoma metastasizing to bones is rare, and isolated metastasis to clavicle is even more uncommon. We report a case of a 60-year-old woman diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma found to have isolated metastasis to the clavicle during adjuvant radiotherapy. Following radiation therapy to the clavicle, patient was started on injection zoledronic acid. She was then planned for chemotherapy comprising of Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for six cycles. Due to lack of compliance, 5months after the initial diagnosis, she developed severe dyspnea due to disease progression and expired. We hereby discuss the treatment options as well as review the literature of prior published reports on endometrial adenocarcinoma with bone metastasis.
