title: Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder in pediatric recipients of solid organ transplants: timing and location of disease.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The objective of our study was to correlate the location of radiologic presentation and time to onset of posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) with the allograft type received in a population of pediatric heart, lung, liver, kidney, and bone marrow transplant recipients.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Symptomatic PTLD in children manifests earliest in lung recipients and can involve any organ system. However, PTLD in the thorax is most common after lung transplantation, and PTLD in the abdomen most commonly follows kidney transplantation.
