The advent of antiretroviral therapy increased the life expectancy of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients and, consequently, the morbidity and mortality due to neoplasms. Plasmablastic lymphoma is one such neoplasm that generally presents with involvement of the oral cavity; cases of extra-oral involvement are rare.
We report a case of plasmablastic lymphoma in a 46-year-old woman for whom the initial clinical manifestation was a painless perineal tumor accompanied by fecal incontinence.
The possibility of this neoplasm should be considered in patients with HIV/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) because its early diagnosis is essential so that the start of the treatment is not delayed.
抗逆转录病毒疗法的出现提高了人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)阳性患者的预期寿命,因此也增加了肿瘤导致的发病率和死亡率。浆母细胞淋巴瘤就是这样一种肿瘤,通常表现为口腔受累;口外受累的病例很少见。
我们报告一例46岁女性的浆母细胞淋巴瘤病例,其最初的临床表现是无痛性会阴肿瘤并伴有大便失禁。
对于HIV/获得性免疫缺陷综合征(HIV/AIDS)患者,应考虑这种肿瘤的可能性,因为早期诊断至关重要,以免延误治疗的开始。
