title: Primary nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma of uterine cervix mimicking leiomyoma.
abstract: Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) accounts for about 5% of all Hodgkin lymphomas and predominantly involves peripheral lymph nodes. Primary NLPHL of uterine cervix is very rare. Here, we report cervical NLPHL with CD21 expression in a 43-year-old woman, who presented with abnormal vaginal bleeding for 1 year.
