This study reports the first case of nondestructive post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder diagnosed at the hepatico-jejunostomy using double-balloon endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography after liver transplantation. Treatment with rituximab led to complete resolution of the mass.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Transplant Surgery
- Oncology
Background:
- Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare but serious complication following liver transplantation (LT).
- Obstruction at the hepatico-jejunostomy (HJ) anastomosis can lead to biliary complications after LT.
- Ascending cholangitis is a potential complication in LT recipients.
