[Lymphographic findings in AIDS patients].
The lymphographic findings in 20 patients with AIDS-most in clinical stage IV-can be divided into four categories. In six there were no specific changes and in a further six the storage pattern was that of sinus histiocytosis. One patient showed transition to malignant lymphoma and another patient had atypical mycobacterial infection of the retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Six patients showed a lymphographic pattern of scarring. The results of this study show that lymphography is a sensitive method that can provide important additional information.
