LYMPHOMATOID GRANULOMATOSIS - WITHOUT A RIBBON

Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is an uncommon Epstein- Barr virus-associated disease, characterized by the excessive production of lymphocytes (white blood cells) which infiltrate or accumulate within the tissues in the form of nodules or lesions. These lesions cause the destruction of blood vessels in these tissues. Lungs are among the most commonly affected sites. Others, most commonly affected sites and organs are skin, liver, kidneys, brain, and spinal cord. Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is a characteristic type of B- cell lymphoma (cancer of white blood cells) which is triggered in response to the suppression of the immune system of the individual and as a result of infection with Epstein –Barr virus.
