Reactivation of latent Epstein Barr virus infection induces remission of splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes.

Markus Hansson1, Annika Linde, Inge Olsson.   

Abstract

Splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes (SLVL) is a rare, slowly progressing, lymphoproliferative disease of B-cell origin. Treatment aimed at cure or remission is limited, and spontaneous remission has not been described. We report on a patient who after 4 years with untreated SLVL developed symptoms of mononucleosis and was found to have reactivation of latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. During recovery from the EBV infection, complete remission from SLVL developed and lasted for 3 years, suggesting that the EBV infection induced an immune response that caused the SLVL remission.
