A rare case of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (Hodgkins lymphoma) post autologous stem cell transplantation: A case report and review of literature.
Annals of Medicine and Surgery 2022 October
Introduction: Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders(PTLD) include a mix of rare yet life endangering complications.
Case presentation and conclusion: Here, we report a case of a 63-year-old man who was the victim of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (Hodgkin's lymphoma). The patient was initially diagnosed with multiple myeloma, for which chemotherapy and the autologous stem cell transplant was carried out. Post transplant patient was stable but on a follow up visit 6 months after the transplant he presented with generalized lymphadenopathy.His subsequent workup was done including a biopsy of cervical lymph node, which revealed Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD)) of mixed cellularity type.The patient was started on chemotherapy and received a total of 4 cycles of Chemotherapy (ABVD) before his condition started deteriorating as chemotherapy was poorly tolerated leading to Bleomycin toxicity. The patient regrettably passed away due to an NSTEMI.
