Abstract:The CD20-negative diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare and heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders.Given the lack of CD20 expression, atypical cellular morphology and aggressive clinical behavior characterized by chemotherapy resistance and inferior survival rates, CD20-negative DLBCL represented a challenge from the diagnostic and therapeutic perspectives.This review introduces the clinical characteristics, prognosis and treatment of different types of CD20-negative DLBCL to improve clinicians` awareness for this kind of malignancy and to enhance its therapeutic effect.
