Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is an Epstein-Barr virus-driven lymphoproliferative disorder, usually with a prominent pulmonary involvement and occasional extrapulmonary manifestations.

The disease was preceded by an immunosuppressive condition, namely low-grade lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma treated with chemotherapy. This is the first report of lymphomatoid granulomatosis at this site and emphasizes that it can present at unusual sites, such as the female genital tract in immunosuppressed patients.
