Popis: Primary central nervous system (CNS) post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in childhood is rare. Twenty-five patients were retrieved from nine European Intergroup for Childhood Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and/or international Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster Study Group members. Types of allografts included kidney (n = 11), liver (n = 4), heart (n = 5), bowel (n = 1) and haematopoietic stem cells (n = 4). Eighteen were male, 16 ≥ 10 years old, 21 had monomorphic disease and 24 solid intracranial tumour masses. Four-year event-free and overall survival rates were 50% ± 10% and 74% ± 9% respectively. This report represents the largest paediatric series of CNS PTLD reported to date, showing favourable survival odds following systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy and rituximab administration.
