[Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy and persistent virus infection? Discussion of immunohistological findings on two cases (author's trsnsl)].
The presence of rubella virus antigen was demonstrated by means of immunohistological methods in two cases of angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy. One patient had elevated serum anti rubella titer and myocarditis. These findings support the idea that angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy develops as a combined effect of persistent virus infection and partial immune deficiency.
