Abstract

The evolution of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy (AILD) to a malignant lymphoma with plasmacytic features in a 77-year-old woman is presented. The transition occurred within one month. Other previously reported cases of malignant transformation in AILD are reviewed. The high mortality rate and the diffuse organ involvement characteristically found in AILD would suggest that the disorder is neoplastic ab initio.
