BackgroundEmbryonal rhabdomyosarcomas (ERMS) of the uterine cervix and corpus are rare pediatric tumors usually associated with a late age of onset and frequent somatic DICER1 mutation. It may also develop in the context of a familial predisposition such as DICER1 syndrome requiring specific medical care for children and young adults at risk for a broad range of tumors.Case presentationThis is a case of a prepubescent 9-year-old girl who was presented to our department for metrorrhagias due to a vaginal cervical mass, initially classified as a müllerian endocervical polyp on negative myogenin immunostaining. The patient subsequently manifested growth retardation (-2DS) and learning disabilities leading to genetic explorations and the identification of a germline pathogenicDICER1variant. The family history revealed thyroid diseases in the father, aunt and paternal grandmother before the age of 20.ConclusionRare tumors such as cervical ERMS associated with a family history of thyroid disease during infancy could be related to DICER1 syndrome. Identifying at-risk relatives is challenging but necessary to detect early DICER1 spectrum tumors in young patients.
