Abstract
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder with involvement of the donor urogenital tissue is a rare and serious complication of solid organ transplant. We report an adult kidney transplant recipient who developed the diffuse large B cell lymphoma of the distal ureter in the setting of new allograft nephropathy. Early intervention, reduction of immunosuppression, surgical reconstruction and chemotherapy salvaged the allograft kidney and averted a fatal outcome. The renal function recovered to the baseline with creatinine ranging between 1.3 and 1.5. The patient did not require dialysis at any point after ureteral stent placement and reconstructive surgery. In addition, the case highlights the importance of multidisciplinary management involving transplant nephrology, oncology, transplant surgery, and urology in such a complicated disease process.
