Abstract:
We report the finding of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) in the cervix and vulva diagnosed during a gynecologic work-up of postmenopausal bleeding. Cervical cytology showed atypical lymphocytes. Colposcopic examination of the cervix identified an abnormal area. A colposcopically directed punch biopsy revealed a lymphoproliferative infiltrate consistent with CLL.
