Primary malignant lymphomas in the female urethra are extremely rare. We report a 63-year-old woman who presented with a localized tumor of the urethral meatus. The tumor was classified as a non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma, a diffuse, small cleaved cell type according to the Working Formulation classification. Immunohistochemistry confirmed that the tumor was derived from B cells. The patient underwent chemotherapy and remains free from evidence of the disease 3 yr after excision. To our knowledge she is the seventh case of malignant lymphoma in the female urethra reported in the English literature.
女性尿道原发性恶性淋巴瘤极为罕见。我们报告一例63岁女性,其尿道口出现局限性肿瘤。根据工作分类法,该肿瘤被归类为非霍奇金恶性淋巴瘤,弥漫性小裂细胞型。免疫组织化学证实该肿瘤起源于B细胞。患者接受了化疗,切除术后3年仍无疾病证据。据我们所知,她是英文文献中报道的第七例女性尿道恶性淋巴瘤病例。
