Primary B-cell lymphoma of the uterine cervix: Presentation in Pap-test slide and cervical biopsy.

abstract：:Small-cell carcinoma (SmC) and high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) are aggressive neoplasms that require prompt diagnosis and treatment. An immediate diagnosis can be obtained using fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) material from lymph nodes (LNs), which are clinically or radiologically suspicious for tumor inv...
