Abstract:
Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are lymphoid proliferations or lymphomas that develop as a result of immunosuppression in recipients of solid organs and bone marrow allografts. The disorder is seen in 1-2% of renal transplant recipients with a variable time period of presentation and is usually seen within the first year following transplantation. We report a case of B-cell lymphoma (PTLD WHO class-3) presenting with skin involvement in a patient of renal transplantation, 8 years after receiving the transplant.
