  • Title: Rapidly progressive human herpesvirus 8-associated solid anaplastic lymphoma in a patient with AIDS--associated Kaposi sarcoma.
    Author: Yamamoto Y, Teruya K, Katano H, Niino H, Yasuoka A, Kimura S, Oka S.
    Journal: Leuk Lymphoma; 2003 Sep; 44(9):1631-3. PubMed ID: 14565671.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of rapidly progressive solid lymphoma with anaplastic large cell morphology, followed by systemic Kaposi sarcoma in an adult patient with AIDS. The lymphoma cells expressed human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8)-encoded latent and lytic proteins and Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA, suggesting that this case could be categorized into HHV-8-associated solid lymphoma, a recently identified disease entity.
