Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma is uncommon tumor and has received little recognition, there are only a few cases in the medical literature. Correct diagnosis is important due to the high malignancy of this cancer and poor prognosis. We present a rare and interesting case of a basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix in a 71-year-old female with prolapse of the uterus with co-existing atypical undifferentiated sarcoma.
