Population

A 30-year-old man with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and malignant lymphoma primarily involving the heart, along with 22 previously reported patients with cardiac lymphoma associated with AIDS from a literature review.

Outcome

Clinical and pathologic features of cardiac malignant lymphoma

Malignant lymphoma of the heart, though rare, is increasingly encountered in patients with AIDS and should be considered when cardiovascular symptoms develop suddenly and progress rapidly.
