Immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders represent a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by abnormal lymphoid tissue proliferation in the context of immune dysregulation. These disorders can range from benign reactive hyperplasia to overt malignant lymphoma and are strongly associated with conditions such as congenital and acquired immunodeficiencies, chronic immunosuppressive therapy, and viral infections, particularly Epstein-Barr virus. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the most common immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders subtypes, their pathogenesis, imaging features, and clinical management. The role of high-resolution computed tomography in the detection, characterization, and differential diagnosis of these entities is highlighted, with a focus on practical radiologic-pathologic correlations.

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...
