Correlative morphologic and molecular genetic analysis demonstrates three distinct categories of posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders.
The posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PT-LPDs) are a morphologically heterogeneous group of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-driven lymphoid proliferations of varying clonal composition. Some PT-LPDs regress after a reduction in immunosuppression, while others progress in spite of aggressive therapy. Previously defined morphologic categories do not correlate with clonality, and neither...
متن کاملMolecular histogenesis of posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders.
Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) represent a serious complication of solid organ transplantation. This study assessed the molecular histogenesis of 52 B-cell monoclonal PTLDs, including 12 polymorphic PTLDs (P-PTLDs), 36 diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCLs), and 4 Burkitt/Burkitt-like lymphomas (BL/BLLs). Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of immunoglobulin variable (IgV) g...
متن کاملT-cell and NK-cell posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders.
Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) of T-cell or natural killer (NK)-cell origin are an uncommon heterogeneous group of lymphoid proliferations that fulfill the criteria for one of the T- or NK-cell lymphomas/leukemias. This report summarizes 130 T/NK-cell PTLDs reported in the literature or presented at the Society for Hematopathology/European Association for Haematopatho...
متن کاملPrimary intraocular posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder.
We report a case of posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder manifesting as an isolated, unilateral iris tumor. A 2-year-old boy who had undergone liver transplantation for biliary atresia at age 4 months was seen with a 2-month history of an enlarging iris nodule. Histopathologic examination of the iris lesion demonstrated a mixed population of lymphoid cells. To our knowledge, this is...
متن کاملMorphologic and Molecular Genetic Diversity
● Context.—Glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary intracranial malignancy, is a morphologically diverse neoplasm with dismal prognosis despite multimodality therapy. Only 3 distinct morphologic variants of GBM are currently recognized by the current World Health Organization classification scheme, including GBM, giant cell GBM, and gliosarcoma. Additional variants, some of which have signi...
