- Abstract
A man with previous addiction to parenteral drugs presented infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) with persistent generalised lymph node enlargement. Sixteen months after diagnosis, he developed intermediate-grade lymphoma of the stomach. Partial response was achieved by chemotherapy, and the patient presented pulmonary and meningeal tuberculosis which led him to exitus.
