Primary uterine lymphoma of the uterine cervix in advanced age.

[Primary lymphoma of the uterine cervix].

A case of primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the uterine cervix is reported. The ultrasonographic and computed tomographic findings are described as well as the MRI appearance of this peculiar cervical mass. The best tumor delineation was achieved by T2-predominant and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images. The lesion was treated successfully with external radiotherapy.
