dc.description.abstract | El desarrollo de linfomas de células B ha sido descrito raramente en portadores del virus linfotrópico humano de células T de tipo 1 (HTLV-1). Se presenta el caso de un portador de HTLV-1 peruano de edad avanzada que fue diagnosticado con el virus Epstein Barr (EBV) - Linfoma de células B grandes difuso. A pesar de una buena respuesta inicial a la terapia el paciente murió durante el tratamiento debido a neumonía fatal por Pneumocystis jiroveci. En este paciente la combinación de coinfección de EBV y HTLV-1 y la inmunosenescencia puede haber jugado un rol en el desarrollo de un agresivo Linfoma de células B grandes difuso. Además, la inmunodeficiencia causada por la quimioterapia y la infección viral puede haber facilitado el desarrollo de complicaciones infecciosas con amenaza de vida. | es_PE |
dc.description.abstract | The development of B-cell lymphomas has been seldom described in HTLV-1 carriers. We present
the case of an elderly Peruvian HTLV-1 carrier who was diagnosed with EBV-positive diffuse large
B-cell lymphoma. Despite an initial good response to therapy, patient died during treatment due to
fatal Pneumocystis jirovecci pneumonia. EBV infection is characterized by B-cell lymphotropism and
selective immunodeficiency. HTLV-1, on the other hand, induces T-cell dysfunction and B-cell
proliferation. Finally, immunosenescence is characterized by T-cell dysregulation, decreased
apoptosis and cytokine upregulation. In this elderly patient, the combination of EBV and HTLV-1
coinfection and immunosenescence may have played a role in the development of this aggressive
diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Furthermore, the immunodeficiency caused by the viral infections
and chemotherapy may have played a role in developing life-threatening infectious complications. | |
