title: Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinemia in homosexual men with acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
abstract: Angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinemia (AILD) is a well-described clinicopathologic entity that tends to occur in older persons. A recently described syndrome, the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), occurring predominantly in young homosexual men, shows considerable clinical overlap with AILD. We studied two cases clinically typical of AIDS in which lymph node biopsies revealed AILD.
