  • Title: Neoadjuvant combined chemotherapy followed by external whole pelvic irradiation in two cases of primary extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the uterine cervix.
    Author: Heredia F, Bravo M, Pierotic M, Majlis A, Carmona L.
    Journal: Gynecol Oncol; 2005 Apr; 97(1):285-7. PubMed ID: 15790479.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Primary extranodal lymphomas of the genital tract are rare. CASES: As there is no current consensus in its management, we present two further cases and their treatment with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by radiation therapy. A radical hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy was performed after primary treatment in one case. Clinical response was complete in both cases and pathological response was documented in one. CONCLUSIONS: Complete response of these lymphoid neoplasms can be achieved by neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by external irradiation.
