Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare and aggressive malignancy. It has poorer clinical outcomes than squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The tumour has specific microscopic features, and usually affects patients in their late 60s and 70s. We present a very rare case of a 30-year-old woman, who was diagnosed on a prophylactic examination and was treated with radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection. The follow-up of the patient is ongoing.
