The disease may manifest itself as dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia, sterility and chronic pelvic pain, among other symptoms. Although it is not malignant, it shares some characteristics with cancer and can lead to epithelial ovarian carcinoma.

Article Synopsis
- Signet-ring cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix is often diagnosed late due to its rarity and potential to occur secondary to other cancers, complicating management and treatment.
- A 37-year-old woman experienced unusual vaginal bleeding, leading to the discovery of a cervical mass diagnosed as primary cervical signet-ring cell carcinoma after extensive evaluations; she underwent radical surgery and is disease-free two years later.
- Accurate diagnosis requires imaging and immunohistochemical studies, but due to limited cases, there's no established treatment protocol, highlighting the importance of increased awareness for early detection and management.
