  • granulomatosis after autologous stem cell transplantation in Nonhodgkin Lymphoma experience of single institution and a review of literature
    Radiology and Oncology, 2016
    Co-Authors: Lucka Boltežar, Ivana žagar, Barbara Jezersek Novakovic
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis before and after treatment of malignancy is an important differential diagnosis that has to be distinguished from Lymphoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Hodgkin Lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell Lymphoma and aggressive follicular Lymphoma are being staged and treatment effect is evaluated with PET-CT. We report three cases of aggressive Lymphoma after high dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation with positive lymph nodes on PET-CT, which were histologically diagnosed as sarcoidosis/granulomatosis. In the literature, we found that false positive lymph nodes were more common after allogeneic than after autologous transplantation. CONCLUSIONS Post-treatment PET-CT positive lymph nodes should always be examined histologically prior to any further treatment decision to avoid unnecessary toxic procedures.

    Abstract:

    Sarcoidosis before and after treatment of malignancy is an important differential diagnosis to be distinguished from Lymphoma. Hodgkin Lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell Lymphoma and aggressive follicular Lymphoma are being staged and treatment effect is evaluated with PET-CT scans. Nevertheless, post-treatment PET-CT positive lymph nodes should always be examined histologically prior to any further treatment decision to avoid unnecessary toxic procedures. We report three cases of aggressive Lymphoma after autologous stem cell transplantation with positive lymph nodes on PET-CT, which were histologically diagnosed as sarcoidosis/granulomatosis. In the literature, we found that false positive lymph nodes were more common after allogeneic than after autologous transplantation.
