A Solid Mass in the Chest Wall: An Unusual Presentation of Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder in a Renal Transplant Recipient

We report a 42-year-old woman who had undergone deceased donor renal transplantation with an unusual presentation of PTLD. The immunosuppressive treatment was discontinued and appropriate chemotherapy was started. However, the patient died despite this treatment. Different presentations of PTLD in transplant patients should also be kept in mind.
