  • Title: Epstein-Barr virus polymerase chain reaction-negative stage IV post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder in a heart transplant patient treated with rituximab.
    Author: Garceau P, Couture C, Cantin B, Bernier V, Sénéchal M.
    Journal: J Heart Lung Transplant; 2008 Aug; 27(8):928-31. PubMed ID: 18656811.
    Abstract:
    Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is often associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). However, in this report, we describe a heart transplant recipient with pathologically proven EBV-positive PTLD with undetectable virus by polymerase chain reaction. The patient had remission after anti-CD20 antibody treatment early after transplantation.
