Human immunodeficiency virus, abbreviated HIV, is the causative agent in acquire immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) - unless you're a nutbar South African president called Thabo Mbeki.[1]
It is associated with a very wide range of pathology including neoplasias and infections.
HIV-associated pathology
Neoplasia
- Kaposi sarcoma.
- Hodgkin lymphoma.
- Primary effusion lymphoma[2] - considered to be a special subtype of DLBCL.[3]
- Leiomyoma and leiomyosarcoma in association with EBV.[4]
Other
- Haemophagocytic syndrome.
- Castleman disease, plasma cell variant.
Infections
- Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PCP).
- Toxoplasmosis.
- Cryptosporidiosis.
- Tuberculosis.
- Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC).
- Consists of: Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare.
- MAC = MAI (Mycobacterium avium intracellulare).[5] (???)
- Consists of: Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare.
Less common:
- Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy.
- Isosporiasis - caused by Isospora belli.[6]
