摘要:
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder encompasses a broad spectrum of lymphoid disorders that occur in immune-suppressed patients following solid or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is an oncogenic virus capable of transforming B lymphocytes and is associated with the pathogenesis of multiple benign and malignant lymphoproliferative disorders, including PTLD. This review outlines current knowledge of EBV pathogenesis, its role in B cell immortalization, transformation, and as an etiologic agent in lymphoproliferative disorders in immune-suppressed patients following transplantation. Here, we provide discussion incorporating infectious disease and medical oncology aspects. © 2016, Springer International Publishing AG.
