title: Conservative management of primary cervical lymphoma using combination chemotherapy: a case report.
abstract: A 22-year-old nulligravida presented with a stage IE/IIIB primary malignant lymphoma of the cervix which measured 8 cm in diameter. In order to preserve reproductive potential, a 12-week course of methotrexate with leucovorin rescue, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, and bleomycin was administered. One month later a 4-cm-diameter left parametrial mass was excised at laparotomy; no tumor was detected in the specimens obtained. Menses resumed after an additional 6 months. The patient was clinically disease-free at the 33-month follow-up.
