Under Pressure: Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disease: A Case of Pulmonary Artery External Compression

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is an often fatal complication of cardiac transplantation that occurs in 2% to 6% of transplant recipients. We report a case in which PTLD led to pulmonary artery external compression and multimodality imaging showed key features in the diagnosis,...
