We report the first case of double-hit (MYC and BCL-6) monomorphic post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder in a patient status post liver transplantation. Our patient is a 71-year-old man with a past medical history of Budd-Chiari syndrome complicated by cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. He underwent a deceased donor liver transplantation 2 years prior to presentation and was maintained on tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil for immunosuppression. He presented with a 3-week history of classical B-symptoms. Initial workup was notable for elevated lactate dehydrogenase. Abdomen ultrasound revealed multiple hypoechoic lesions, raising suspicion for a post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder. Biopsy showed pleomorphic large neoplastic cells throughout, consistent with a diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Cytogenetics then revealed rearrangements in both MYC and BCL-6, consistent with double-hit lymphoma. His immunosuppressive regimen was subsequently tapered and he was started on DA-EPOCH-R (dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and rituximab) regimen.
我们报告了首例肝移植术后发生双打击(MYC和BCL-6)单形性移植后淋巴细胞增生性疾病的病例。我们的患者是一名71岁男性,既往有布加综合征病史,并发肝硬化和肝细胞癌。他在就诊前2年接受了尸体供肝肝移植,术后使用他克莫司和霉酚酸酯进行免疫抑制治疗。他出现了3周的典型B症状病史。初步检查显示乳酸脱氢酶升高。腹部超声显示多个低回声病变,怀疑为移植后淋巴细胞增生性疾病。活检显示全是多形性大肿瘤细胞,符合弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤的诊断。细胞遗传学检查随后发现MYC和BCL-6均有重排,符合双打击淋巴瘤的诊断。随后逐渐减少他的免疫抑制方案,并开始使用DA-EPOCH-R(剂量调整的依托泊苷、泼尼松、长春新碱、环磷酰胺、多柔比星和利妥昔单抗)方案。
