Post Transplant

Post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant secondary solid neoplasms are uncommon and usually host-derived. We describe a 6-year-old female who developed a mixed donor-recipient origin mesenchymal stromal tumor-like lesion in the liver following an unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplant complicated by severe graft-versus-host disease. This lesion arose early post-transplant in association with hepatic graft-versus-host disease. At 12 years post-transplant, the neoplasm has progressively shrunken in size and the patient remains well with no neoplasm-associated sequelae. This report characterizes a novel lesion of mixed origin post-transplant and offers unique insights into the contribution of bone marrow-derived cells to extra-medullary tissues.

Graft Versus Host

Graft-versus-host disease has been reported to occur rarely in syngeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Clinical and histological changes consistent with graft-versus-host disease have been reported to occur in this patient population. We report a case of a 46-year-old Caucasian male with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in complete remission who underwent a syngeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. He was diagnosed with grade III acute skin and gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease requiring high-dose corticosteroids and immunosuppressive therapy and resulting in a complete response. Syngeneic graft-versus-host disease is an anomaly that needs to be considered as a differential diagnosis of patients experiencing dermatitis, gastroenteritis, or hepatitis after an identical twin hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Increased Risk

Hematopoietic stem-cell transplant recipients are at increased risk of developing invasive fungal infections. This is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We report a case of a 17-year-old male patient diagnosed with severe idiopathic acquired aplastic anemia who developed fungal pneumonitis due toRhizomucor sp.and rhinoencephalitis due toScedosporium apiospermum6 and 8 months after undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplant from an HLA-matched unrelated donor. Discussion highlights risk factors for invasive fungal infections (i.e., mucormycosis and scedosporiosis), its clinical features, and the factors that must be taken into account to successfully treat them (early diagnosis, correction of predisposing factors, aggressive surgical debridement, and antifungal and adjunctive therapies).
