Association between azathioprine therapy and lymphoma in rheumatoid disease.

P I Pitt1, A H Sultan, M Malone, V Andrews, E B Hamilton.   

Abstract

Three out of 41 patients treated with azathioprine and low-dose corticosteroids from 1976 to 1983 developed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This strikingly high incidence of lymphoma may be a reflection of long-term use of azathioprine.
