✨Primary splenic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma represents a very uncommon manifestation within the spectrum of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, comprising approximately 1% of the total caseload.

🎯 We report the case of an eighty-year-old male who presented with unintentional weight loss, fever, and night sweats.

🎉 Splenectomy revealed a necrotic mass that replaced most of the splenic parenchyma. Histology showed diffuse infiltration by large atypical lymphoid cells with immunoblastic morphology. Immunohistochemistry confirmed B-cell lineage. Importantly, the tumor also exhibited aberrant CD30 expression, a finding reported in only a minority of cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. While uncommon, CD30 positivity has been suggested in the literature to carry prognostic implications and may represent a biologically distinct subset.
