ABSTRACT
A 58-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis was diagnosed with methotrexate-associated Hodgkin lymphoma. After receiving several chemotherapy regimens, she started nivolumab treatment. Two weeks later, she was hospitalized with worsening finger, wrist, and elbow joint pain. A synovial biopsy of the wrist joint showed villous synovial proliferation and linear infiltration of CD68-/CD3-positive T cells (with more CD8 than CD4 T cells) but no CD20-positive B cells or CD138-positive macrophages. These findings corresponded to synovitis associated with immune-related adverse events, which are induced mainly by T cells and are different from typical rheumatoid arthritis (RA), in which B cells play a central role.
