R Ouseph et al. J Am Soc Echocardiogr. 1998 Jul.

Abstract

Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) occurs in approximately 5% of patients after orthotopic heart transplantation. PTLD is frequently fatal. PTLD rarely involves the cardiac allograft. We report the first case of PTLD seen as a mass in the cardiac allograft.
