An Unusual Case of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia Involving the Cervix.

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a malignant monoclonal expansion of B lymphocytes, with accumulation of abnormal lymphocytes in the blood, bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes and liver. It is mainly a disease of the elderly population. Though extra-nodal involvement is common, cervical and vulvovaginal involvement by CLL is particularly uncommon. In this case report, we discuss the case of cervical involvement of CLL in an 84-year-old patient who presented to rapid-access gynaecological clinic following concerns of persistent postmenopausal bleeding. Previously the patient was known to haematology with a well-controlled diagnosis of CLL since 2007. The initial examination was significant for an enlarged, irregular cervix, whereby a punch biopsy was then obtained. Histological analysis revealed evidence of CLL within the cervix.
