Abstract
Lymphoproliferative disorders following liver transplantation are often Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related high- grade B cell lymphomas. EBV-negative and low-grade lymphoma is a very rare condition after cadaveric as well as living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Herein we report a case of follicular lymphoma with negative EBV viral capsid anti- gen (VCA), IgM, IgG and Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER), which developed after LDLT, and review the literature pertaining to EBV-negative post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) after liver transplantation.
