Florid reactive lymphoid hyperplasia of uterine cervix is a reactive inflammatory process that mainly occurs in women during their reproductive years. These lesions are histologically similar to lymphoma. Etiology of these lesions are multifactorial but in many cases the cause has not been identified. A 49-year-old female patient admitted to another center with menstrual irregularity and pelvic pain complaints. A cervical biopsy was performed in that examination and the biopsy findings were compatible with cervix carcinoma. The patient referred to our hospital and computerized tomography(CT) was performed. At CT imaging cervix was hypodense and there was an enlargement in cervical volume. There were no specific findings in patient’s endometrial curettage, endocervical curettage and vaginal smear preparations. After the current findings and complaints of the patient, total abdominal hysterectomy and bilaterally Salpingo-oophorectomy were performed. Cervix was enlarged and it was in irregular appearance in the macroscopic examination. A subserosal located myoma in 1,8 cm diameter was detected. In the histopathological examination, erosion of cervical epithelium and dense lymphoid cell infiltration was observed under the epithelium. The appearance was similar to lymphoma, but immunohistochemical staining of CD3 and CD20 staining was heterogeneous in lymphoid cells. As a result of these findings, the case was reported as lymphoma-like lesion. Florid reactive lymphoid hyperplasia of cervix uteri are reactive lesions. Careful clinical, histologic and immunphenotypic correlations are required to avoid misdiagnosis. Immunohistochemical receptor studies are the most reliable diagnosis and management method of these cases.
