Primary lymphoma of the female genital tract, including the uterine cervix, is rare. The clinical picture is nonspecific, which complicates the timely diagnosis. Treatment and prognosis are considerably different in the long list of differential diagnoses, including other malignancies and inflammatory processes. Sometimes multiple biopsies and immunohistochemistry are needed for a definite diagnosis. Here we report a 34-year-old female with a mass on the uterine cervix and the final diagnosis of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, Non-Germinal Center Type. The pathologist and clinician must be aware of this entity in daily practice, for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
