  • Title: [Angioimmunoblastic lymphoadenopathy with dysproteinemia. A doubtful clinical case].
    Author: Petrella V, Silvera F, Massara G, Buschini M.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1986 Nov 10; 77(42-43):2015-8. PubMed ID: 3774208.
    Abstract:
    After a brief description of the clinical and laboratory picture of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with Dysproteinaemia (AILD), the case of a 49 year old woman is described. The woman died of haematemesis and with a clinical picture that originated 14 years earlier with Sjogren's syndrome that developed with modest systemic lymphadenopathy, splenohepatomegaly, autoimmune anaemia (Coombs direct positive). Histological examination of the parotid, certain lymph glands, the liver and the spleen suggested a diagnosis of proliferative lymphopathy that might have been either AIDL or low malignity NH lymphoma. The rarity of the syndrome and the clinical difficulties of accurate diagnosis are discussed.
