Hairy cell leukemia and multiple autoimmune manifestations in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient.
Aggressive B-cell lymphomas are clearly related to HIV infection. However, the relationship of HIV infection to low-grade B- or T-cell lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease is not well established. The authors describe a case in which hairy cell leukemia was associated with lupus anticoagulant and direct Coombs' test in an HIV-positive patient.
