[Hodgkin's lymphoma associated with inflammatory bowel disease treated with thiopurines. A case report and review of the literature].
Abstract
The risk of developing a lymphoproliferative disease associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been a controversial issue for decades; it is debatable whether the risk is associated with the chronic inflammation of IBD per se or its treatment, especially with thiopurine drugs (azathioprine and mercaptopurine) and anti-TNF-α agents. We present an unusual case of a 35-year-old man who had been diagnosed with Crohn's disease at age 17 and treated with azathioprine, presenting years later with an intestinal Hodgkin's lymphoma.
