B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) is a well-documented complication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Marginal zone (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue; MALT) lymphomas constitute a less common type of B-NHL. In this article, we report a case of liver MALT in a cirrhotic patient, incidentally discovered after liver transplantation (LT). We discuss pertinent diagnostic and management strategies in this clinical setting.
B细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤(B-NHL)是丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染的一种有充分文献记载的并发症。边缘区(黏膜相关淋巴组织;MALT)淋巴瘤是B-NHL中较不常见的一种类型。在本文中,我们报告了一例肝硬化患者在肝移植(LT)后偶然发现的肝脏MALT淋巴瘤病例。我们讨论了在这种临床情况下相关的诊断和管理策略。
