“…11 Therefore, its onset is probably related to immunosuppression. The oral manifestation of BL in HIV-infected individuals has been reported in 8 cases, in addition to the present patient [12][13][14][15][16] (Table 1). HIV-related BL cases in general occur primarily in men, 14 with a median age of 41 years (range 19 to 61).…”

“…NHL is recognised as an AIDSdefining condition and in contrast to the lymphomas that occur in immunocompetent individuals, HIVrelated lymphomas often occur extranodally and run an aggressive clinical course 7 . Oral NHL may manifest as swelling, ulceration, exophytic masses, mobility or early loss of teeth, trigeminal neuropathy or delayed healing of extraction sites [8][9][10][11][12] . The case presented details the first report of oral NHL presenting at the site of an inferior alveolar dental nerve block injection.…”

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a serious worldwide healthcare problem with implications for all healthcare workers. The reported oral manifestations of the disease are numerous and have been categorised according to the strength of their association with HIV infection. Oral non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma is strongly associated with HIV infection, and an increased incidence of such neoplasms is widely reported. This case report details the presentation of a rare subcategory of plasmablastic lymphoma in an HIV‐positive patient after administration of an inferior alveolar dental block to facilitate extraction of mandibular teeth. This highly aggressive neoplasm is a large B‐cell lymphoma with a predilection for the oral cavity. Unfortunately, the prognosis for such a tumour is poor as detailed in this case.

“…[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Burkitt's lymphoma of the paranasal sinuses has not been previously described in HIV-infected children; however, two HIV-infected adults have been reported with paranasal sinus Burkitt's lymphoma. 19,20 In one case, the patient was treated for an unremitting bacterial sinusitis for five months before a maxillary sinus biopsy showed Burkitt's lymphoma. 19 Burkitt's and Burkitt's-like lymphoma are both classified as high-grade B-cell lymphomas in the REAL classification.…”

Two children (ages 12 and 13 years) with transfusion-acquired human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection presented with facial pain and rhinorrhea. Radiographic imaging showed extensive paranasal sinus disease, presumed to be bacterial sinusitis, and the patients were treated with broad-spectrum oral antibiotics. Both patients were unresponsive to oral agents and were switched to intravenous antibiotics. Despite aggressive antimicrobial therapy, one patient (case 1) developed increased periorbital swelling and proptosis, and the other patient (case 2) developed symptoms of nasopharyngeal obstruction. Repeat imaging showed progression of the infiltrative process extending from the paranasal sinuses into the orbit (case 1), and nasopharynx (case 2). Surgical exploration and tissue biopsies were performed on both patients and the histopathology was consistent with Burkitt's/Burkitt's-like lymphoma. Combination systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy resulted in a complete remission in both patients. These reports illustrate the fact that Burkitt's/Burkitt's-like lymphoma in the paranasal sinuses may initially masquerade as an acute bacterial sinusitis. The ability of the tumor to extend rapidly from the sinuses into the orbit and nasopharynx reinforces the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. Burkitt's/Burkitt's-like lymphoma in the paranasal sinuses has not been previously described in HIV-infected children.
