[Cytomegalovirus acalculous cholecystitis in an AIDS patient].

We report a case of acalculous cholecystitis in an AIDS patient, that appeared with insidious onset, abdominal right upper quadrant pain and fever. Cholecystectomy was performed and CMV inclusions were observed in tissue sections. CMV acalculous cholecystitis is an uncommon condition associated to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. It should be considered, especially when abdominal pain and fever are present in marked immunosuppressed AIDS patients. Unfortunately, a limited experience in treatment, either medical or surgical, was reported. In our case, the response to surgical procedure was successful, disappearing the abdominal pain and the fever. The patient refused both ganciclovir and foscarnet therapy.

AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections↗

Diagnosis, Differential↗

[Sarcomatoid renal carcinoma].

The authors present a case of sarcomatoid kidney adenocarcinome of the fibrosarcomatoid kind. They stress the importance and difficulty of making a differential diagnosis between the sarcomatoid type of kidney adenocarcinomas and pure sarcomas of the kidney, this being an entirely histopathological and extremely complex diagnosis. They comment upon the possible histogenesis in the sense that they may be sarcomatoid areas deriving from the stroma or from a cellular metaplasia of the adenocarcinoma.
