Primary peripheral T cell lymphoma of the endometrium.
A case of a primary peripheral T cell lymphoma arising in the endometrium is presented. Primary lymphomas of the female genital tract are rare, with endometrial lymphomas and those of T cell type being rarer still. Extensive investigations revealed no other sites of disease and the patient was treated by hysterectomy and chemotherapy. She remains well 33 months later. We believe that this case is exceptionally unusual.
