Leucemic infiltration of the female internal genitalia as a cause of vaginal bleeding

Abstract

This is a case of chronic lymphatic leucemia. The leucemic infiltration of the endometrium, cervix, and fornices of the vagina is discovered for the first time in a living woman. Furthermore, the examination of the tissue removed by biopsy led to the diagnosis of the disease. The relationship between the infiltration and abnormal vaginal bleeding is discussed. The beneficial response to therapy is demonstrated.
