We report on a 53-year-old Japanese man diagnosed with gastric Burkitt's monomorphic post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (B-PTLD) after endoscopy for gastric discomfort 28 months after the patient underwent renal transplantation in Ethiopia. Serum Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) tests were negative before transplantation, but the tumor cells collected from a gastric biopsy showed positive EBV-encoded small RNAs (EBER) at B-PTLD onset. Intensive treatment started with R(rituximab)-CHOP therapy and continued with DA-EPOCH-R therapy has been effective, and relapse has not yet occurred. Burkitt lymphoma has a poor prognosis, but B-PTLD may be effectively treated with high-dose chemotherapy. This is a rare case of gastric B-PTLD in a Japanese patient.
