Ofuji papuloerythroderma in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
Ofuji papuloerythroderma (OPE) is a distinctive clinical entity of unknown etiology which occasionally may be associated with B-cell and T-cell lymphomas and visceral malignancy. We describe a case of OPE in a male with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first report of OPE in a patient infected by the human immunodeficiency virus.
