The authors state that the data in these registers ''were never published.'' They are correct in the sense that the entire set of autopsy records for that period has not been published. Yet, it is pertinent to note that the data have been used in considerable part for many other published studies. The authors have entirely overlooked the pioneering work of P. V.

Ovarian Neoplasm Versus Ovarian Lymphoma: A Literature Review with Focus on Radiology and Pathology Features

“…In the recent literature that we have analysed, several cases of primary and secondary ovarian diffuse large B-cell lymphoma are reported, which represents a clinically and biologically heterogeneous group of aggressive lymphomas which in many cases arises in extranodal sites such as the gastrointestinal tract, soft tissues, bone, breast, gonads and endocrine and exocrine tissues. Follicular lymphoma is a small B-cell lymphoma that in most cases presents as a dissemination of nodal disease while it manifests as a primary lymphoma in a percentage of cases of 10-15% and is well documented in sites such as the tract gastrointestinal tract, the testis, the thyroid, the breast, and the orbit [20,21]. Burkitt lymphoma is an aggressive lymphoma that can present at an extranodal site or as acute leukemia.…”
