The Role of Multispiral Computed Tomography in the Diagnosis of Acute Surgical Pathology in HIV-infected Patients with Newly Diagnosed non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Abstract

Acute surgical pathology in patients with HIV infection is much more severe due to immunodeficiency, opportunistic infections and neoplastic processes, which significantly complicates not only the choice of treatment tactics for these patients, but also the initial diagnosis. In our article, we examined the features of primary radiation diagnosis of acute surgical pathology against the background of previously undiagnosed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and demonstrate our own clinical experience. In the presented clinical cases, acute surgical pathology occurred as a result of the progression of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, as well as the addition of an opportunistic infection, as a result, this not only leveled the overall clinical picture, led to repeated relaparotomy, but also ended in death
