The two major variants of malignant lymphoma are non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas and Hodgkin’s disease. More than 90% of all cases of non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas are of B-cell derivation. The malignant lymphoma localized in uterus is rare and characteristically symptom-free expressed, but when it does, the cervix is the presenting site three times more often than is the endometrium. We have experienced a case of malignant lymphoma originated from uterine cervix, so we report with a brief of literature.
