Effect of highly active antiretroviral therapy on the incidence and clinical manifestations of visceral leishmaniasis in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients.

This study analyzes the effect of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) on visceral leishmaniasis in human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals. We describe 66 episodes diagnosed in our hospital from 1994 through 2000 (35 episodes in patients who were not receiving HAART and 31 episodes in patients who were receiving HAART). Since HAART became available, the incidence of visceral leishmaniasis has significantly decreased and the number of first episodes has decreased, although the number of relapses is increasing.

[Localized Castleman's disease associated with high-grade lymphoma].

Castleman's disease is a rare entity which is characterized by its histologic features: hyperplasia of lymph nodes and capillary proliferation. Two distinct histological patterns has been described: hyaline vascular type and plasma-cell type. Two different clinical course has been identified. While localized type is usually a benign disease in which surgical resection is curative, multicentric type has a poor prognosis regarded to the appearance of severe infection or neoplasm (Kaposi's sarcoma or malignant lymphoma. We present a rare association of localized Castleman's disease that presents synchronously with a diffuse large-cell lymphoma.
