10
HIV INDUCED DYSPLASIA
11
WORK UP-ITP FBC with smear: true thrombocytopenia vs clumps Size of platelets, granules ( dysplasia) Other cells:malignant, infections ( bacteria, malaria) Fragments Leucoerythroblastic reaction
12
WORK UP - ITP INR & PTT CD 4 ANF BMBx Sonar - asses splenic size AND SPLENIC VEIN SIZE
13
CYTOPENIAS - ANEAMIA When to investigate: 11g/dL, 10g/dL, 9g/dL, 8g/dL Causes: production deficit or peripheral destruction or both HAEMATINIC SCREEN RPI, Haptoglobin, Coombs,LDH, +/- SPEP BMBx
14
CAUSES - ANEAMIA ACD Drugs- AZT/ Bactrim Infections - Parvovirus / HBV/ HCV/CMV/ HIV PRCA - Drugs( ARV's rare), T cell auto immunity BM displaced by tumour AIHA - cold/ warm/ both

TUMOURS Hodgkin's lymphoma - AIDS defining High grade B Cell NHL- AIDS defining T Cell NHL ( ALC & T Angioimmunoblastic) Low grade B Cell Other ( CML, myeloma) Karposi's - AIDS defining
16
TUMOUR PRESENTATION Often the tumour declares itself Lymph adenopathy needs to be reacted on! B symptoms Abdominal distention, jaundice Pneumonias......? Lung lesions Irrespective of CD 4 count
