Abstract
Infliximab is a tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha blocking drug classified as a biological response modifier. It has been suggested that the risk of malignancies, especially lymphomas, is increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with anti-TNF-alpha antibody therapy. We present a case of malignant lymphoma during the treatment of RA with infliximab and methotrexate.Entities:
