Epstein-Barr Virus-positive Mucocutanous Ulcer of the Uterine Cervix: Report of a Rare and Evolving Entity

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive mucocutaneous ulcer (EBVMCU) is a newly described lymphoproliferative lesion characterized by the proliferation of EBV-positive atypical B cells in a variable inflammatory background associated with mucosal or cutaneous ulcers. Commonly involved sites include the oropharyngeal tract, skin, and gastrointestinal tract, with emerging reports describing EBVMCU of genitalia. To date, no lesions have been described of the uterine cervix. Herein, we report the first cervical EBVMCU incidentally discovered at large loop excision of the transformation zone performed for treating human papillomavirus induced high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. The patient was a 35-yr-old, human immunodeficiency virus-positive woman with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis. Histologic and immunohistochemical findings showed classic Hodgkin lymphoma-like features. Systemic lymphoproliferative disease was excluded by appropriate clinical and imaging modalities. This case report highlights the prototypical histologic features of cervical EBVMCU. We emphasize the importance of clinicopathologic correlation to avoid overtreatment of a lesion that can otherwise meet histologic criteria for a lymphoma. Clinicians and pathologists should familiarize themselves with this entity, as this indolent, pseudomaligant lesion typically occurs in immunocompromised patients and spontaneously regresses when the cause for the immunosuppression is addressed.
