CNI withdrawal for post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders in kidney transplant is an independent risk factor for graft failure and mortality. Rabot N, Büchler M, Foucher Y, Moreau A, Debiais C, Machet MC, Kessler M, Morelon E, Thierry A, Legendre C, Rivalan J, Kamar N, Dantal J. PMID : 24964147 Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is not a common complication after transplantation, so prospective studies have been conducted mainly because it is difficult to perform prospective studies. PTLD is mostly a B cell origin and may be associated with EBV. PTLD can occur if the patient's immune system does not respond well to EBV infection. In this study, we investigated the effect of PTLD on the survival of patients and grafts after complete termination of the calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) in kidney transplant recipients. Patients were selected according to the criteria selected in the study, and follow-up was carried out after diagnosis of PTLD. When the cu...
