The optimal treatment protocol is not fully established because of its rarity and diagnostic challenges. Case Presentation: A 72-year-old Asian female presented to our outpatient clinic with postmenopausal vaginal spotting for 1 month. Vaginal sonography revealed a cervical tumor of 2.7 cm in diameter with hypervascularity. Tumor markers such as CA 125, CA 19-9, carcinoembryonic antigen, and squamous cell carcinoma antigen all showed no abnormality. Due to high suspicion of cervical cancer, a pap smear and endocervical curettage were performed and confirmed the diagnosis of LCNEC. A positron emission tomography\u2013computed tomography scan demonstrated a glucose hypermetabolic lesion in the mid-pelvic region, localized to the uterus, consistent with LCNEC. Surgery with radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection was performed. The patient was finally diagnosed with pT1b2N1mi, FIGO IIIC1. Immunohistochemical stain shows that the neoplastic cells were CK (+), p63 (\u2212), p16 (\u2212), CEA (\u2212), vimentin (\u2212), ER (\u2212), WT-1 (\u2212), p53 (\u2212), and CD56 (+), with a high Ki67 index (75%). Concurrent chemotherapy with cisplatin and radiotherapy was performed. Four cycles of etoposide and cisplatin were planned. A 3-month follow-up of this patient revealed stable tumor marker levels. Conclusions: This case highlights the diagnostic challenges and aggressive nature of LCNEC of the cervix, emphasizing the need for a standardized treatment approach to improve patient outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics15060775","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,20]],"date-time":"2025-03-20T09:17:39Z","timestamp":1742462259000},"page":"775","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Large-Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Cervix: Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Wing Yu Sharon","family":"Siu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Tzu Chi University, Hualien 970, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9996-0428","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chiu-Hsuan","family":"Cheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Tzu Chi University, Hualien 970, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5105-068X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dah-Ching","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Hualien Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Tzu Chi University, Hualien 970, Taiwan"},{"name":"Institute of Medical Sciences, Tzu Chi University, Hualien 970, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"226","DOI":"10.1097\/01.PGP.0000071046.12278.D1","article-title":"Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Uterine Cervix: A Clinicopathological Study of Six Cases","volume":"22","author":"Sato","year":"2003","journal-title":"Int.
