Primary Breast lymphoma is a rare lesion that has been reported in patients without HIV. However, Primary Breast lymphoma occurring in a patient with HIV has rarely been reported despite the fact that HIV infection is known to increase the propensity to develop certain types of lymphoma. We report a case of an HIV patient with breast lymphoma that was discovered by screening mammography while presenting our argument for more cautionary management in this patient population.
原发性乳腺淋巴瘤是一种罕见的病变,在未感染艾滋病毒的患者中已有报道。然而,尽管已知艾滋病毒感染会增加患某些类型淋巴瘤的倾向,但发生在艾滋病毒感染者中的原发性乳腺淋巴瘤却鲜有报道。我们报告一例艾滋病毒感染患者患乳腺淋巴瘤的病例,该病例是通过乳腺钼靶筛查发现的,同时我们提出了对此类患者群体应采取更谨慎治疗措施的观点。
