Lymphoproliferative Disorders and De Novo Malignancies in Intestinal and Multivisceral Recipients: Improved Outcomes With New Outlooks

Abstract

Despite pretransplant lymphoid depletion, preemptive antiviral therapy and minimization of posttransplant immunosuppression significantly reduced PTLD morbidity (P=0.0001) and mortality (P=0.001) with no impact on NLC. Patient survival was also improved (P=0.0001) with 91% at 1 year and 75% at 5 years.
