Long-term remission in a patient with NK/T cell intravascular lymphoma with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Intravascular lymphoma (IVL) is a rare subtype of lymphoma, mostly of B-cell origin. A few cases of IVL have been reported as having NK/T cell origins (IVNKTL). These cases are known to be fatal, especially when systemic symptoms are present. We report the case of a patient of IVNKTL who was refractory to initial treatment and received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT). She has maintained complete remission (CR) for over eight years. Our case might support the evidence of auto-HSCT for the treatment of IVNKTL with chemosensitivity.
