RESUMO

EBV-associated PTLD is increasingly recognized as an important cause of morbidity and mortality in both solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Mortality rates due to PTLD and virus-induced HLH are reported to be quite high. We report a case of EBV-associated PTLD and HLH in a child after liver transplantation who was successfully managed due to timely intervention. This case highlights that measurement of EBV load by quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays is an important aid in the surveillance and diagnosis of PTLD and early detection of EBV-induced PTLD, and aggressive treatment with rituximab is a key to survival in patients who have undergone liver transplantation.

RESUMO

Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) is a rare indolent variant of non- Hodgkin's lymphoma characterised by lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of bone marrow (BM) associated with a serum IgM paraprotein. The WHO classification states that the neoplastic cells of WM usually are positive for monotypic surface immunoglobulin light chain, IgM, CD19, and CD20 and are negative for CD5, CD10, and CD23. Serum monoclonal protein detection by serum protein electrophoresis and bone marrow aspirate and biopsy are required for WM diagnosis, monitoring and response assessment. Pathologist must dissuade themselves from making a hasty decision on calling a complete response in WM when neoplastic B cell component is absent. Evaluation of clonality of any residual plasma cells must be done in all cases of WM to evaluate the presence and extent of residual or persistent disease. Role of additional therapy targeted at these residual plasma cells in WM can be evaluated as tools for achieving complete remission. Herein, we present a case of WM with residual monotypic plasmacytosis in BM, without B lymphocytes after therapy.

RESUMO

Intraventricular cavernous hemangiomas are rare. Amongst them, cavernomas located at the foramen of Monro are of greater interest because of their rare location, varied symptoms, and often association with hydrocephalus. We present a rare case of cavernous hemangioma located at foramen of Monro, with its radiopathological confirmation.
