Abstract

B Background: b Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare complication of solid organ transplantation (SOT) and is composed of a heterogeneous spectrum of predominantly B-cell disorders. At PTLD diagnosis, lung recipients were more frequently EBV-DNA positive (6/7) than those liver transplanted (1/11) ( I p i = 0.001). The novelty of our experience is the observation that lung PTLD were more frequently EBV positive and associated with a worse outcome than kidney/liver ones. [Extracted from the article]
