| Abstract: | ![]()
High grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma developed 42 days after allogeneic T cell-depleted bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for idiopathic aplastic anaemia. DNA hybridization studies confirmed clonality and incorporation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) genome. Prolonged remission followed low dose chemotherapy, local radiotherapy and early withdrawal of cyclosporin. |
