A 40-year-old man had been treated for Behçet's disease (BD) with cyclosporine A (CsA) for 14 years. He presented multiple lymphadenopathies with fever. Histological examination of surgical biopsy showed other iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma type with positivity for Epstein-Barr virus encoding RNA-1 (EBER-1). BCL2-IgH, BCL6-IgH, and MYC-IgH translocations were not detected. CsA was stopped, and R-CHOP therapy was initiated. However, his lymphoma was chemotherapy resistant and rapidly progressed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that occurred in a BD patient treated with CsA reported in English. Both BD and CsA are associated with the pathogenesis of lymphoma. We also describe extremely rare cases in the form of a literature review.
