Mononucleosis-like-syndrome associated with acute AIDS retrovirus infection.
A 47-year-old man developed an acute infectious mononucleosis-like illness with a moderate lymphocytosis and numerous atypical lymphocytes in the peripheral blood. Seroconversion to the AIDS-associated virus occurred between 14 and 20 days following the onset of the acute illness. He was found to have reduction of the T4:T8 ratio, low mitogenic response to PHA and cutaneous anergy when tested at 25 and 136 days. These tests had returned to normal by 262 days.
