Core Tip |
Post transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid proliferations associated with immunosuppression following solid organ transplantation (SOT) or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). PTLD associated with B-cell esophageal lymphoma is a rare diagnosis. Our patient was identified to have isolated PTLD at the gastroesophageal junction, which has not been reported in the modern era of positron emission tomography-computer tomography. Previous reported cases describe esophageal lymphoma associated with symptoms of dysphagia, odynophagia or esophogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) findings that revealed an associated mass or locoregional lymphadenopathy. However, given the variation in presentation in post-transplant and immunocompromised patients, gastrointestinal symptoms should prompt further investigation with an EGD. |
