AB  - Plasmablasticlenfoma (PBL) is a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)’s variant form that isespecially reported in HIV-infected patients. PBL is a rare entity seen mostcommonly in the setting of immunocompromise. However, this disease may presentin extraoral sites in which the genital tract appears to be the less common. Herewe present a patient with uterine and fallopian mass diagnosed PBL. A 51-year-oldmultipara (G6P4C2) woman with a chief complaint of irregular vaginal bleedingwas presented to our outpatient clinic. She had a prior history of breastcancer treated by right mastectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy.Transvaginalultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging both showed an uterine massthought to be leiomyoma, which 4×3 cm in size on the anterior wall of uterincorpus. The pathology result of the mass was found to be plasmablasticlymphoma. Genital involvement also appears to be last but possible site option tofind PBL focus in immunocompetent patients.
