We present an interesting case of plasmablastic lymphoma, which is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that is typically diagnosed in HIV-positive patients and has an immunophenotype that overlaps with multiple myeloma. Our patient is unique because he is HIV-negative, has primary bone marrow disease, and has an atypical immunophenotype.
