Dear Editor, Previous literatures showed that 0.5–8.3% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas after solid organ transplantation were NK/T cell lymphomas [1, 2]. Although some cases of extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL) after kidney transplantation were reported [1, 3–6], ENKL after liver transplantation has not been reported so far.A 62-year-old woman presented with progressive gingival ulcers in the upper jaw. She had undergone living donor liver transplantation for liver cirrhosis with chronic hepatitis C 9 years before and had been taking immunosuppressants for prevention of allograft rejection. We usually use tacrolimus and methylprednisolone for this purpose; however, in this case, we changed tacrolimus to mycophenolate mofetil due to refractory diarrhea. Incisional biopsy sample of the gingiva showed middle-sized atypical lymphoid cell infiltration. In immunohistochemical staining, these lymphoid cells were CD3 (+), CD4 (−), CD5 (weak), CD8 (+), CD20 (−), and CD56 (weak). Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA in situ hybridization (EBER-ISH) gave a positive result. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed paraaortic lymph nodes swelling and a left pararenal tumor.
