[Sclerosing cholangitis, papillary stenosis and B-cell lymphoma in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome].
The case of a 31 year old man who had been intravenous drug abuser for years is reported. He was studied because of abdominal pain, jaundice, a weight loss of 10 kg, and the presence of a subclavicular mass. Biopsy of the mass demonstrated a high-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and the patient was classified in group IV-D of the human immunodeficiency virus infection because he had HIV serum antibodies and a reduced CD4/CD8 lymphocyte ratio. Although lymphoma had a good response to chemotherapy, persistent cholestasis led to liver and biliary evaluation. Sclerosing cholangitis and papillary stenosis were found. He has been followed for two years, without evidence of any secondary infectious disease associated to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
