PTLD involvement of allograft kidney. PTLD is often extranodal
and frequently involves the allgoraft itself.
In the case of renal transplant recipients, allograft involvement is seen in
about 1/3 of cases. Such involvement may develop as an infiltrative process or
it may form one or more tumors.The tumor presents in this case as a yellow mass
which projects from the surface of the kidney.
