Abstract:
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is a fatal complication after lung transplantation, which is intimately associated with age, immunosuppression level and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, etc. Reducing immunosuppression level, rituximab therapy and T cell immunotherapy are common treatments for PTLD. With the rapid development of lung transplantation in China, PTLD after lung transplantation has attracted widespread attention. This article reviews the risk factors, pathological types, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and prevention of PTLD after lung transplantation, aiming to provide reference for early monitoring and management of the incidence and progression of PTLD.
