Abstract:
A 70-year-old woman with lymphadenopathy was admitted to hospital in 2008. Lymph node biopsy showed reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (RH) with monoclonal proliferation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Her lymphadenopathy regressed without treatment. In 2014, the patient presented with nasal obstruction because of a left nasal mass. She was diagnosed with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the elderly based on the examination of a biopsy specimen of the mass. The IgH rearrangement in the specimens from the 2008 and the 2014 revealed that they were genetically identical. This is the first report of RH progressing to DLBCL, and suggests that EBV-positive B-cells in RH lymph nodes predict the evolution to DLBCL.
