Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, imaging manifestations, etiology, histological origin, pathological characteristics, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, selection of treatment methods, and prognosis of primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma of livers (PDLBCLL), so as to improve understanding and reasonable diagnosis and treatment of this kind of disease.Method The clinicopathologic data of a case of PDLBCLL diagnosed in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University in June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively.Results It was very difficult to diagnose PDLBCLL preoperatively and to distinguish PDLBCLL from primary liver cancer and other liver space occupying lesions. It was also easy to ignore the possibility of invasion of liver by lymphopoietic tissue tumor, which was often diagnosed by postoperative pathological diagnosis or puncture biopsy, and after the elimination of hematological diseases by various examinations. This patient was admitted to the hospital as a space occupying in right liver. Preoperative imaging examination considered that may be a tumor. After MDT discussion, considering that the nature of the tumor should be confirmed by surgical resection, and then go to the Department of Oncology. Irregular right hemihepatectomy + cholecystectomy + hilar lymphadenectomy + diaphragmatic repair was performed after MDT discussion. The diagnosis of PDLBCLL was confirmed by postoperative pathological examination. The operation duration was about 230 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was about 200 mL. The patient recovered well without complications and was discharged on the 10th day after operation. The patient was followed up for 9 months. The liver and kidney function, electrolytes and abdominal Doppler ultrasound examination were regularly reviewed every month. No obvious abnormality was found in these results.Conclusions At present, there is no unified treatment principle, most of them will undergo surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or combined treatment. Due to its unknown etiology and unclear mechanism, clinicians can only implement individualized treatment according to the characteristics of patients’ conditions.
