Multisite Head and Neck Pediatric Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder: A Case Report
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) can mimic infectious processes in the head and neck. A high index of suspicion for PTLD must be maintained in pediatric transplant patients, and minimal response to antibiotics/corticosteroids should prompt timely biopsy of suspicious tissue to expedite the diagnosis and treatment of PTLD.
