Abstract
ABSTRACT A 28-year-old woman with vaginal discharge was admitted to the hospital. Colposcopy examination found several ulcers with pus in the vagina. Biopsy demonstrated extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma. PET/CT scan was subsequently performed for staging. It revealed intense FDG uptake in the vagina. No FDG-avid lesion was seen in the rest of the body. A primary vaginal extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma was diagnosed.

Abstract
Primary vaginal cancers are rare and account for 1-3% of all gynecologic malignancies. There are several histological subtypes that affect a wide range of the population. Imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning of vaginal cancers. This article reviews the relevant anatomy, clinical findings, imaging characteristics, and recent advances in the management of vaginal malignancies.
