Clinical, laboratory, and pathologic findings from a case of primary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the testis and sinuses in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) are presented. To our knowledge this is the first case in the English literature of a primary testicular plasmacytoma in an HIV-infected patient. The findings in this report and those of others confirm the difference in the pattern of plasma cell tumor (PCT) presentation in patients infected with AIDS from those in non-infected individuals, suggesting that these tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of AIDS-associated malignancies.
本文报告了一例获得性免疫缺陷综合征（AIDS）患者睾丸和鼻窦原发性髓外浆细胞瘤的临床、实验室及病理检查结果。据我们所知，这是英文文献中首例HIV感染患者的原发性睾丸浆细胞瘤。本报告及其他研究结果证实，AIDS感染患者与未感染个体的浆细胞肿瘤（PCT）表现模式存在差异，提示在AIDS相关恶性肿瘤的鉴别诊断中应考虑这些肿瘤。
