We present a case of endometrial squamous‐cell carcinoma in a hysterectomy specimen also showing CIS of the cervix with signs of human papillomavirus infection in a 64‐year‐old woman. The hypothetical histogenetic relationship of both neoplasms is discussed taking together the evidence collected in the very few similar cases on record.
