Objective To analyze the clinical and imaging characteristics of primary ovarian lymphoma (POL) from the perspective of radiologists. Materials and Methods The clinical and imaging data of a 52-year-old patient diagnosed with POL was retrospectively analyzed in this study. A review and summary of similar cases reported in English over the past twenty years, as available in the PubMed database, were also conducted. Results The occurrence of POL is not limited by age but is more commonly observed in the forties years old. Clinical manifestations of POL are often nonspecific, presenting as an abdominal mass, abdominal pain, and ascites. The most prevalent histological subtype of POL is diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Imaging features are helpful for diagnosis, such as “ovarian retention sign”, “large ovaries touching each other”, and “vascular floatation”. Conclusion Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis of POL, with radiologists serving as a pivotal role in furnishing essential diagnostic data to assist clinicians in devising suitable treatment strategies, preventing unnecessary surgical interventions.
