| angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy with dysproteinaemia | A lymphoproliferative disorder characterised by generalised lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, fever, sweats, weight loss, skin lesions, and pruritus with hypergammaglobulinaemia; occurs primarily in older adults, often with fatal outcome. Proliferation of B-cells, deficiency of T-cells has been demonstrated. Synonym: immunoblastic lymphadenopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| persistent generalised lymphadenopathy | A syndrome characterised by reactive hyperplasia of lymph nodes (of at least one month's duration and at two different body sites, not including the inguinal area) in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus. The lymph node lesions progress from benign reactive hyperplasia through a stage of mixed follicular hyperplasia, to follicular involution with lymphocyte depletion. Many go on to a malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy | A chronic disease occurring in children and characterised by massive painless cervical lymphadenopathy due to distension of the lymphatic sinuses by macrophages containing ingested lymphocytes, and by capsular and pericapsular fibrosis. Synonym: Rosai-Dorman disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dermatopathic lymphadenopathy | Enlargement of lymph nodes, with proliferation of pale-staining interdigitating reticulum cells and macrophages containing fat and melanin; secondary to various forms of dermatitis. Synonym: dermatopathic lymphadenitis, lipomelanic reticulosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| immunoblastic lymphadenopathy | A disorder characterised by proliferation of arborizing small vessels, prominent immunoblastic proliferations and amorphous acidophilic interstitial material. Clinical manifestations include fever, sweats, weight loss, generalised lymphadenopathy and frequently hepatosplenomegaly. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lymphadenopathy | <clinical sign> Swelling of the lymph nodes. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (18 Nov 1997) |
| lymphadenopathy-associated virus | <virology> A type of retrovirus (human immunodeficiency virus) that is responsible for the fatal illness acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Two strains have been identified. Type 1: the retrovirus recognised as the agent that induces AIDS. Type 2: a virus closely related to HIV-1 that also leads to immune suppression. HIV-2 is not as virulent as HIV-1 and is epidemic only in West Africa. Acronym: HIV (11 Nov 1997) |
| Assmann's tuberculous infiltrate | An incipient lesion of tuberculous infection. Synonym: Assmann's tuberculous infiltrate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pericarditis, tuberculous | Infection of the pericardium with tubercle bacilli. This condition arises by contiguous extension of tuberculous lesions of the hilar or mediastinal lymph nodes or by pleuropulmonary tuberculosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| empyema, tuberculous | Empyema due to mycobacterium tuberculosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tuberculous | Relating to or affected by tuberculosis. Compare: tubercular. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculous abscess | An abscess caused by the tubercle bacillus. Synonym: cold abscess. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculous bronchopneumonia | An acute form of pulmonary tuberculosis characterised by widespread patchy consolidations. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculous enteritis | Enteric tuberculosis that may occur in the absence of obvious pulmonary t.; may be caused by bovine tuberculosis contracted through drinking of unpasteurised milk or swallowing of tubercle bacilli expectorated from cavitary lesions in the lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculous lymphadenitis | Lymphadenitis resulting from infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis; tuberculosis of the lymph nodes. Synonym: tuberculosis lymphadenitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
