Abstract
Pelvic involvement of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is exceptionally rare. Herein, we present a case series of a 61-year-old, 88-year-old, and 79-year-old female, all with a history of CLL who underwent exploratory surgery with gynecologic oncologists for newly diagnosed pelvic masses and endometrial pathology. Intraoperative findings and pathology were consistent with CLL.
