Abstract
Primary central nervous system (CNS) post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in childhood is rare. Twenty-five patients were retrieved from nine European Intergroup for Childhood Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and/or international Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster Study Group members. Types of allografts included kidney (n = 11), liver (n = 4), heart (n = 5), bowel (n = 1) and haematopoietic stem cells (n = 4). Eighteen were male, 16 ≥ 10 years old, 21 had monomorphic disease and 24 solid intracranial tumour masses. Four-year event-free and overall survival rates were 50% ± 10% and 74% ± 9% respectively. This report represents the largest paediatric series of CNS PTLD reported to date, showing favourable survival odds following systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy and rituximab administration.

Pediatr Transplant 2020; 24:e13697. [PMID: 32212293 DOI: 10.1111/petr.13697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2019] [Revised: 12/18/2019] [Accepted: 02/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-transplant malignancies, that is, lymphomas, are a recognized complication in intestinal transplant recipients but are mostly secondary to EBV infection. There is an increased risk for malignancies in unusual sites in intestinal transplant recipients as compared to other solid organ transplants and the general population. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incidence, course, and outcome of unusual malignancies in children after ITx. METHODS Retrospective analysis of children who underwent ITx for primary digestive disorders at Birmingham Children's Hospital between January 1989 and December 2017. RESULTS Ninety-eight intestinal transplants were performed in 90 children (49 males and 41 females) with an underlying primary digestive disorder. Median age was 2.7 years (0.6-16.2), and median weight was 14.5 kg (5.7-53.2) at the time of transplant. Within this cohort, we identified four cases of unusual malignancies at rare sites of presentation. One patient developed cerebral PTLD, two patients were diagnosed with SMT, located at the stomal orifice and in cervicothoracic paravertebral area, respectively, and the last patient developed a retroperitoneal angiosarcoma. Unfortunately, the overall patient outcome was poor in all but one child with SMT, who currently survives with cytotoxic T-cell therapy. CONCLUSION Unusual malignancies can occur in approximately 5% of children following ITx. A high index of suspicion is required for a timely diagnosis and adequate treatment.
