Overview

The exact cause of lymphomatoid granulomatosis is unknown. Lymphomatoid granulomatosis occurs with greater frequency in individuals with some form of immune system dysfunction including individuals with Sjogren syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis or chronic viral hepatitis.

It is likely that some combination of immunodeficiency, genetic and familial factors all play a role in the development of lymphomatoid granulomatosis. The therapy used varies, but is generally directed against eliminating the EBV-infected B-cells or boosting the immune system.
