Types of lymphomas in transplant and other immunosuppressed patients

  • Chapter
Cancer in Transplantation: Prevention and Treatment

Abstract

Lymphoproliferative disorders are the major neoplastic complications in acquired immunosuppressed patients after organ transplantation or HIV infection. Post transplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) affect approximately 2% of all organ recipients [1]. Non Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) arise at the time of the onset of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in 3% of HIV infected patients and 10% of AIDS patients will develop a NHL [2].
