Abstract:
A case of primary non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma of the vulva which occurred in a 68-year-old woman is presented. Non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma is infrequently involved in the female genital tract. Moreover, primary vulvar involvement of this tumor is very rare. To date only 6 cases have been reported in the literature. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of a non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma of the vulva in Korea.
