Abstract

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are rare immunosuppression complications affecting 5% of transplant patients. Isolated central nervous system (CNS)-PTLD without nodal or extra-nodal organ involvement is rarely reported and is difficult to diagnose due to the non-specific clinical manifestations and imaging features overlapping with other common CNS lesions.
