Endometrial cancer in the lower uterine segment (LUS) is associated with Lynch syndrome withMLH1orMSH2germline mutation. Here, we report a case of carcinoma of the LUS diagnosed with Lynch syndrome based onMSH6germline mutation in a 46‐year‐old woman with abnormal vaginal bleeding. She had had rectal cancer at age 39 with a family history of colon cancer (father, 75 years), pancreatic cancer (paternal grandmother, 74 years), and colon cancer (maternal grandmother, 85 years). Magnetic resonance imaging showed a tumor in the LUS. Endometrial biopsy revealed endometrioid adenocarcinoma G1. As her cancer history met the revised Bethesda criteria, we examined microsatellite instability and the result was negative, but loss of theMSH6expression was detected by immunohistochemistry. Genetic testing revealed deleterious germline mutation ofMSH6, which was compatible with Lynch syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first case of endometrial carcinoma of the LUS withMSH6germline mutation.
