Abstract：Cervical adenoid basal cell carcinoma(ABC)is a rare malignancy that is frequently associated with high-risk human papillomavirus(HPV)infection and often coexists with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion(HSIL).Due to its nonspecific clinical manifestations,ABC is prone to misdiagnosis,and its pathogenesis remains unclear,posing diagnostic challenges.This report presents a postmenopausal patient with cervical ABC who was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine with the chief complaint of cervical lesion 3 days prior.Given the patient's lack of fertility desire,a total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed.No postoperative complications or recurrence has been observed during follow-up.By summarizing the etiology,clinical characteristics,and key diagnostic and therapeutic considerations of this disease,this case aims to enhance clinicians' understanding of cervical ABC and improve diagnostic accuracy and management strategies.
