Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation is frequent after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), but generalized CMV lymphadenitis is rare. We report a CMV lymphadenitis after an ASCT mimicking a relapse of a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. After histopathological documentation, CMV lymphadenitis should be treated to avoid systemic progression.
