EBV-positive mucocutaneous ulcer (EBV-MCU) is a rare EBV-positive B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder occurring in immunocompromised patients such as patients with solid organ or hematopoietic stem cells transplantation. EBV-MCU often consists of an isolated and circumscribed cutaneous or mucosal ulcerative lesion with a self-limited growth potential and a high regression rate upon immunosuppressive treatment withdrawal or rituximab therapy. Nevertheless, the pathophysiology of this latent infection leading to clonal lymphoproliferation is not well established. We report here two cases of EBV-MCU in kidney transplant recipients with a dissociated immune response to EBV with the absence of EBV-related antibodies and a positive T-cell response to EBV suggesting a potential specific oncogenic mechanism in this lymphoproliferative disorder.

D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.
