Sumario:RATIONALE: Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a rare subtype of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that predominantly manifests in the oral cavity. PATIENT CONCERNS: Three cases of HIV-negative PBL were reported. DIAGNOSES: HIV-negative PBL INTERVENTIONS: The patient had undergone chemotherapy. OUTCOMES: Clinical outcomes were very poor in Cases 1 and 3; Case 2, whose diagnosis suggested no bone marrow involvement, is still alive. LESSONS SUBSECTIONS: These cases served to broaden the reported clinical spectrum of HIV-negative PBL. Clinicians and pathologists need to be familiar with lymphoma in the identified extra-oral PBL variation and there levant differential diagnosis procedures for this particular disease.
