Abstract:Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic features of 6 cases of cervical lymphoma.Methods The HE and IHC slides were reviewed in 6 cases of cervical lymphoma.The patients' medical records were examined to obtain the information about the pertinent clinical findings,staging studies,and follow-up.Results The median age of the 6 cases was 48 years.5 cases were secondary involvement.4 cases presented abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge.6 cases showed cervical masses.5 cases were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma,1 case was anaplastic large cell lymphoma.2 cases were died,3 cases were alive,and 1 case was unknown.Conclusion Cervical lymphomas are rare.Most of the cases are secondary involvement as part of a systemic disease.The most common presenting symptom is abnormal vaginal bleeding or discharge.The most frequent clinical finding is cervical mass.Majority of reported cases are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.The most challengeable differential diagnosis is lymphoma-like lesion.Pathologic diagnosis should combine with clinical features.
