Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Two cases of atypical location of visceral leishmaniasis in two immunodepressed patients are described. In one case, leishmaniasis was seen involving the mucosa of both the esophagus and duodenum in an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patient whose initial symptoms were odynophagia and esophagospasm, resulting from an esophageal ulcer. In the second case, leishmaniasis was seen in the mucosa of the colon of a human immunodeficiency virus-seronegative patient suffering from long-standing untreated pulmonary tuberculosis; the initial symptoms were fecal incontinence and diarrhea. Both patients lived in an area where leishmaniasis is endemic. As the condition of both patients improved after treatment with meglumine antimoniate, it is assumed that their symptoms were caused by leishmania organisms. Pathologists working in nonendemic areas should be aware of this protozoon when interpreting alimentary tract biopsies of immunodepressed patients, both human immunodeficiency virus-seropositive and human immunodeficiency virus-seronegative, who have visited areas where leishmaniasis is endemic.

Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that manifests in patients with the diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), more prominently in the head, neck, and oral mucosal region. The diagnosis of this rare lymphoma serves as a concomitant diagnosis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. The case is of a 33-year-old previously healthy male, with an unknown diagnosis of HIV with a painful right mandibular mass. He was subsequently diagnosed with PBL and HIV. This case of PBL illustrates the importance of linking a rare and potentially life-threatening diagnosis as a possible first manifestation of HIV.

Viral Inclusions

We report two infants with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and rectal bleeding due to cytomegalovirus (CMV) ileitis and colitis with minimal focal mucosal ulceration but with extensive leiomyolysis of the muscularis propria. Immunostaining and in situ hybridization for CMV showed numerous viral inclusions in the myocytes of the muscularis propria and vascular endothelium/smooth muscle with only occasional inclusions present in the muscularis mucosae. Colectomy was curative in one patient; in the other the bowel was only examined at postmortem.
