โœฆ Synopsis

Therapy for the inflammatory bowel diseases increasingly includes the use of immune-modifying and biologic therapies. Recently, in young patients with IBD, an association has been noted between the use of infliximab along with concomitant purine analogues and the development of hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL)-a rare and all but incurable form of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This report briefly reviews the issue of lymphoma and IBD therapy. Additionally, a description of HSTCL and a summary of the known cases of this apparent therapeutic complication are presented. Clinical options in light of this new information are explored.
