Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) are two subtypes of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The simultaneous occurrence of DLBCL and AITL in a composite lymphoma is very rare, and there are no established treatment regimens. We present the case of an 85-year-old male admitted to the intensive care unit with distributive shock, lymphocytosis, and lymphadenopathy, who was subsequently diagnosed with composite AITL and DLBCL, and treated with brentuximab vedotin (BV) and rituximab. To our knowledge, this is the first case of composite lymphoma presenting with distributive shock and treated with BV and rituximab, with successful resolution of shock.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
