Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a rare and aggressive form of mature B cell neoplasms almost exclusively identified in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The small number of HIV-negative PBL cases reported in the literature to date is composed of single case reports and small case series which characteristically are present involving the oral cavity mucosa or gingiva. We present a 72-year-old HIV-negative Australian patient without any cause of immunodeficiency, with an isolated left maxillary sinus PBL.
浆母细胞淋巴瘤（PBL）是一种罕见且侵袭性的成熟 B 细胞肿瘤，几乎仅在感染人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）的患者中被发现。迄今为止，文献中报道的少数 HIV 阴性 PBL 病例由单个病例报告和小病例系列组成，这些病例主要存在于口腔黏膜或牙龈。我们报告了一例 72 岁的 HIV 阴性澳大利亚患者，无任何免疫缺陷原因，左侧上颌窦孤立性 PBL。
