摘要

Multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder with a high mortality rate in undiagnosed patients.?Traditionally, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive MCD occurs due to infection with human herpes virus-8 (HHV), which is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of MCD.?We present the case of a 49-year-old woman who was referred to our oncology clinic for generalized lymphadenopathy in a waxing and waning pattern for the last four years.?She was found to be HIV positive.?Here we report a rare case of HIV-positive, HHV-negative MCD that responded to prompt treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) followed by chemotherapy as evidenced by improved CD4+ T cell numbers and reduction in lymphadenopathy.?The findings in this HHV?seronegative patient may indicate an alteration in the virulence and tropism between HHV?and HIV, and further demonstrate the need for continued investigation into the pathogenesis of Castleman disease.
