Sumario:OBJECTIVE: Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphomas of the cervix are rare; they represent about 1% of all cases. There are no available guidelines regarding the safest mode of delivery after treatment and resolution of a cervical lymphoma. Case Report. We report the first case of a successful vaginal delivery after induction of labour in a woman recovered from a primary large B-cell lymphoma of the cervix and a literature review. CONCLUSION: In carefully selected patients with fully treated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the cervix with no residual disease, induction of labour via prostaglandins pessary may be a safe option if indicated.
