ABSTRACT
Primary uterine non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is an extremely rare disease. To accumulate more information on clinical data, we report three cases of primary uterine NHL with apparently the first demonstration of karyotypic analysis. Histological diagnosis was diffuse large B cell type in all patients. Two of them with advanced stage showed chemoresistance and a short survival. The remaining case with early stage showed an uneventful course following operation. No common chromosomal abnormality was detected. The therapeutic strategy for uterine NHL might therefore be similar to that for other types of aggressive NHL, although a larger study is needed.
