Abstract: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most prevalent type of diffuse B-cell lymphoma in non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The progressive enlarging lymphonodus is the most common clinical manifestation of this disease. DLBCL often appears heterogeneous presentations. It is easy to be misdiagnosed. Here, we reviewed a case of DLBCL with liver cirrhosis, in which the initial symptom was upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and the endoscopic examination showing gastric ulcer. We hope to improve the understanding and diagnosis and treatment levels of DLBCL by analyzing this case.
