| Popis: |
Ovarian lymphomas are rare. We reviewed three cases seen at our hospital to determine any similarities and outcome. The women presented with abdominal discomfort and swelling and were staged as stage I, II and IV. All three cases were B-cell lymphomas confirmed with positive staining with CD45 (LCA), CD20 (L26), CD 45 (4KB) CD45RA (MB1) and MB2 on immunohistochemistry. The two patients with more advanced disease died soon after treatment but the one with stage I (primary ovarian lymphoma) was still alive after 2 years. Ovarian lymphoma when detected late carries a poor prognosis. |
