Background Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm (PEComa) is a rare mesenchymal tumour. Due to its low incidence, a standard treatment regimen for PEComa has not yet been established. Radiotherapy has a synergistic effect with PD-1 inhibitors and GM-CSF. We treated advanced malignant PEComa with a triple regimen of PD-1 inhibitor, SBRT and GM-CSF to provide better therapeutic effect. Case presentation A 63-year-old woman was diagnosed with malignant PEComa after presenting with postmenopausal vaginal bleeding. Despite two surgeries, the neoplasm eventually metastasized throughout the body. We formulated triple therapy with SBRT, a PD-1 inhibitor, and GM-CSF for the patient. The patient’s local symptoms were controlled at the radiotherapy site, and the lesions at the unirradiated sites were also relieved. Conclusions For the first time, a triple regimen of PD-1 inhibitor, SBRT and GM-CSF was used in the treatment of malignant PEComa and achieved good efficacy. Considering the lack of prospective clinical studies in PEComa, we believe that this triple therapy is a good-quality regimen for advanced malignant PEComa.
