Study of Some Lymphoproliferative Clonal Markers Following Renal Transplantation
@inproceedings{AbdelSamea2010StudyOS, title={Study of Some Lymphoproliferative Clonal Markers Following Renal Transplantation}, author={Elham Ragab Abdel-Samea and Ahmad Shawki Mohammed and Farha A. El-Chennawi}, year={2010} }
Post-renal transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) is a well known category among all the other lymphoproliferative disorders. The cause of this complication is mainly due to long term immunosuppression, and infection particularly by Epstein-Barr virus. The aim of this work is the early recognition of clonal changes for early therapeutic intervention as most of these changes are polyclonal. Yet the transition to oligo - and subsequent monoclonal is important for follow up with the…

A clinically aggressive T-PTLD may be a late complication of solid-organ transplantation and does not appear to be related to EBV,HTLV-1, HTLV-2, or HHV-8 infection.

Both polymorphic and monomorphic PTLDs show a higher incidence of lack of CD20 and surface immunoglobulin light-chain expression, which may have therapeutic implications, since anti-CD20 antibody has increasingly become an important modality in the treatment of B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders, including posttransplant disorders.

Opportunities exist to target those populations at highest risk for the development of PTLD for aggressive monitoring and pre‐emptive or prophylactic therapy, and it is hoped that implementation of such strategies will render early PTLD a preventable complication of transplantation.

Depletional induction is not an independent risk factor for posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease and maintenance drug selection or perhaps the balance between B‐ and T‐cell depletion may be more relevant determinants of PTLD risk.

Data show that in the context of a CDC-negative crossmatch, the presence of D0 DSA has little impact on any early graft parameters, however, DSA are associated with poorer longer-term graft outcomes in kidney transplantation.
