Abstract
There are few reports of salvage chemotherapy for HIV-related non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We report a relapsed HIV-related high-grade NHL which was treated successfully with ESHAP chemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT). ABMT may later have triggered opportunistic infections in this patient.
