Abstract
Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the ovary is a rare ovarian malignancy. Previous reports of ovarian non-Hodgkin's lymphoma have included both primary and secondary cases, because exactly defined criteria was not available. Ovarian lymphoma has been reported poor prognosis. However, true primary ovarian lymphoma shows a favorable prognosis. We experienced a case of primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the ovary in a 34-year-old patient, who presented with abdominal distension and abdominal pain, and reported it with a brief review of literatures.
Key Words: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, Ovary
