ABSTRACT

Abstract. Post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder is a low incidence complication of transplant recipient patients. However, mortality is high if the diagnosis and management are not appropriate. For this reason the radiologist should be aware when dealing with images of these patients, particularly in the first year following the transplantation. In this article the case is presented of a woman who was recipient of a kidney, and developed post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder, affecting the central nervous system.


Resumen. El síndrome linfoproliferativo postrasplante es una complicación que se presenta con una baja incidencia en los pacientes que han sido trasplantados. Sin embargo, si el diagnóstico y manejo no son oportunos su mortalidad es alta. Por esta razón el radiólogo debe estar atento al diagnóstico al interpretar estudios de este tipo de pacientes, especialmente en el año siguiente al trasplante. Presentamos el caso de una paciente con antecedente de trasplante renal y síndrome linfoproliferativo postrasplante con afección del sistema nervioso central.
