ALK-Negative T-Cell Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Abstract: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) appear to have an increased risk of developing malignancies, especially lymphomas. We report the development of a systemic ALK-negative T-cell anaplastic large cell lymphoma, stage IIB, in a 53-yr-old Caucasian female with a 12-yr history of stable SLE. The patient responded poorly to chemotherapy and died 2 yr after diagnosis. Lymphomas that develop in patients with SLE and other autoimmune diseases are virtually always of B-cell origin. To our knowledge this i… Show more

“…Cancers develop in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (Table 4 128–182 ), and the reported frequency of malignancy in these patients ranges between 2.5% and 13.8% 133,135,137–143,145,153,161,164,174,176–179,183,184 . It is still controversial whether systemic lupus erythematosus is associated with an increased overall risk for cancer.…”

“…Alternatively, there is an increase in lymphomas in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, even when they are not treated with immunosuppression. 10 Amyloid in association with systemic lupus erythematosus is quite rare and usually manifests as renal involvement. Fewer than 20 cases have been reported.…”
