چکیده
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a rare hematologic neoplasm that typically presents with B symptoms, anemia, and lymphadenopathy. Its overall prognosis is poor, with a 5-year survival rate of 30%. We present a case of AITL that went into spontaneous remission, an uncommon occurrence.

Objective To determine the efficacy and prognosis of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as frontline treatment for peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL). Methods Clinical data from 46 PTCL patients who achieved complete (CR) or partial remission (PR) after ASCT from October 1996 to July 2014 were analysed retrospectively.

متن کاملSevere pulmonary arterial hypertension as a predominant manifestation of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma: a case report
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma is a rare and unique disease with peculiar clinical features among malignant lymphomas. We report here a case of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension appearing as the main manifestation of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma in a 55-year-old woman. The patient was treated with the THP-COP regimen, consisting of pirarubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and ...
متن کاملLong-Term Treatment with Romidepsin in Patients with Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous group of aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a common subtype of PTCL, and patients with AITL typically have a poor prognosis with limited treatment options. Clinical studies have demonstrated the activity of romidepsin, a structurally unique, potent, bicyclic class 1 selective histone deacetylase...
متن کاملFirst-line therapy of peripheral T-cell lymphoma: extension and long-term follow-up of a study investigating the role of autologous stem cell transplantation
Current guidelines recommend consolidation with autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT) after induction chemotherapy for most patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). This assumption is based on five prospective phase II studies, three of which included <50 patients with limited follow-up. Here we present the final analysis of the prospective German study. The treatment regimen c...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus load correlating with clinical manifestation and treatment response in a patient with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated lymphoma may arise secondary to angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). The prognosis is poor despite chemotherapy and experimental therapies. We report on a 40-year-old woman with AITL without obvious immunodeficiency in which EBV-associated lymphoma developed. The occurrence and size of enlarged lymph nodes correlated strongly with the EBV load in serum ...
