Primary malignant lymphoma of the uterine cervix is an extremely rare condition, with only about 100 cases reported in international literature. The diagnosis can be difficult, as stated by some authors finding only 10 up to 40% of cases of cervical lymphoma diagnosed by positive cytology. We present a case of primary malignant lymphoma of the cervix in a 57 year old woman treated at the Department of Gynecological Oncology at the Regina Elena Cancer Institute in Rome, with a sudden and unfavorable outcome.
