ABSTRACT
Background:
The incidence oflymphoma increases enormously inpatients infecten with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).Aim:
To describe the incidence, clinical and histológica! characteristics, treatments and survival of lymphomas associated with HTV infection. Material andMethods:
Retrospective review of medical records ofpatients with HIV and lymphoma, treated in a public hospital, between January 2001 and June 2009.Results:
Twenty-two mole patients were included but 14 had immunohistochemical confirmation ofthe lymphoma. The accumulated incidence for thisperiod was 2.8 percent. The median age at lymphoma diagnosis was 39.5 years. Twelvepatients (86 percent) had non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHI) and two (14 percent) Hodgkin lymphoma. The main pathological type of non-Hodgkin lymphomas was diffuse large B cell in seven cases (50 percent). The mean CD4 cell count and viral load were 83 cell/mm³ (33.5-113.5) and 26.000 RNA copies/ml (1210-196500), respectively Twelve patients (86 percent) had B type symptoms of lymphoma at the moment of diagnosis. Eleven patients (29 percent) received chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy, onepatient (7 percent) received radiotherapy alone and two patients (14 percent) received palliative symptomatic treatment. Six cases (43 percent) received highly active antiretroviral therapy simultaneously with chemotherapy. Global mortality in this series was 57 percent (8patients) with a median survival time of 5.8 months (2.6-26.2).Conclusions:
In this series ofpatients infected with HIV, a predominance of aggressive histológica! subtypes of lymphomas and low complete remission rates, were observed.
