Resumen
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is a well-recognized complication after transplant. We developed and validated a risk score to predict PTLD among solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. This work presents the first risk score developed and externally validated to predict risk of PTLD among SOT recipients. PTLD is a potentially severe complication after solid organ transplantation, and the best clinical strategy would be to detect the disease at early stages and prevent progression to fulminant lymphoma or even better to predict the risk of a patient developing PTLD prior to onset of disease. Our score had a strong similar discriminatory ability in both derivation and validation cohorts.
