Epstein-Barr-associated lymphoproliferative disorders have been described as complications of immunodeficiency states including allogeneic BMT. There is, however, only one report in the English language literature of such a disorder after autografting. We report a 56-year-old man undergoing autologous BMT for CML in whom a rapidly progressive lymphoproliferative disorder showing the histology of typical post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder with latent EBV presence developed at approximately 30 days after BMT. Therapy with corticosteroids, acyclovir and alpha-interferon was instituted and led to prompt resolution of symptoms and signs. There was no evidence of lymphoproliferative disease at 7 months after BMT. It is concluded that EBV-associated lymphoproliferative disorders may be a complication, albeit a rare one, of intensive therapy with autologous stem cell support.
