| description | A 41-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department
with a 1-month history of weight loss, intermittent fever, and
malaise. Generalized pallor, mild dehydration, and a temperature
of 37.5 �C were found on physical examination. Initial blood
workup revealed pancytopenia, elevated lactate dehydrogenase,
and hypoalbuminemia. A fourth-generation HIV ELISA test was
positive. His HIV-1 RNA viral load was 13 800 copies/ml and the
CD4+ T-cell count was 3 cells/mm3
. Urine, blood, and cerebrospinal
fluid cultures were without microbiological isolation |
