Answer
At the time of the hysterectomy, the specimen was examined and a pathology report was generated. Get a copy of the pathology report and you will know if there was any evidence of a malignancy of the uterus, tubes, or ovaries (if they were removed). If there was any malignancy or cancer of the ovary, there certainly could have eventually been metastasis to the bones, lungs, or breasts. What was the cause for the hysterectomy. Remember, a hysterectomy is only removal of the uterus (but not the ovaries or fallopian tubes). That is called a bilateral salpingoophorectomy. We usually do not remove the ovaries of women under the age of 45 unless there is an indication of disease. The uterus is usually removed due to heavy bleeding, or fibroids. Certainly, if there was Cancer, then both ovaries, tubes, and the uterus would have been removed, and the pathology report would mention that.
