Epstein-Barr virus lymphoproliferation after bone marrow transplantation.
We review 15 cases of secondary B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders that occurred among 2,475 patients who received allogeneic bone marrow transplants (BMTs) at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (Seattle) between 1969 and 1987. The histopathologic findings in 14 of the 15 patients spanned a wide spectrum of lymphoproliferative lesions. One patient had features characteristic of angioi...

To the Editor: Antiviral agents including Acyclovir have been ineffective for this complication because they affect only the replicative phase of EBV Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lymphoproliferation is now a signifiinfection and cannot modify the growth oftransformed B cells. Oetcant cause of morbidity and mortality after mismatched family or tle et a l l recently reported a patient who develo...
متن کاملThe development of cellular immunity to Epstein-Barr virus after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
Epstein-Barr virus-induced lymphoproliferative disease (EBV-LPD) is a potentially lethal complication during the first 6 months after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). To determine whether deficiencies of EBV-specific cellular immunity contribute to EBV-LPD susceptibility and distinguish patients at risk, we performed limiting dilution analysis to quantify anti-EBV cytotoxic T-lymph...
متن کاملOral eosinophilic ulcer, an Epstein-Barr virus-associated CD30+ lymphoproliferation?
Eosinophilic ulcer of the oral mucosa is a benign lesion of unclear pathogenesis mostly affecting the tongue. It has been suggested to represent a reactive pattern to several stimuli. We report on a 12-year-old boy who presented with a painless infiltrating ulcer on the gingiva of the lower jaw, which was covered by necrotic yellowish slough. There were no pathologic features of the jawbones or...
متن کاملEradication of Epstein-Barr virus by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation: implications for sites of viral latency.
Wild-type strains of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can be distinguished on the basis of variations in the molecular weight of virus-encoded, growth transformation-associated proteins. This approach was used to study the persistence of EBV in two seropositive recipients of allogeneic bone marrow transplants. The first patient received marrow from her EBV-seronegative brother, became EBV seronegative ...
