    Gastric-type endocervical adenocarcinoma (G-EAC) is a highly malignant cancer often misdiagnosed due to nonspecific symptoms.

  • 2

    Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) significantly increases the risk of G-EAC and other gynecological malignancies in affected individuals.

  • 3

    The case study reports a 44-year-old woman with PJS who was diagnosed with G-EAC after a long history of an asymptomatic cervical mass.

  • 4

    Postoperative pathology confirmed G-EAC, revealing extensive infiltration and subsequent lymph node metastasis.

  • 5

    The study emphasizes the need for improved diagnostic awareness of G-EAC in patients with PJS to prevent missed diagnoses.
