This unique case of LEC with dMMR suggests a distinct clinical entity with potential immunotherapy implications. Analysis of the other five LEC cases revealed that LEC was immune hot, and immune checkpoint inhibitors may be effective. The two dMMR cases showed loss of MLH1 and PMS2 expressions, and prominently high tumor PD-L1 expression. In those cases, dMMR might have contributed to the morphological characteristics of LEC.
