[Report of a case: non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the hypopharynx in a patient with HIV infection. Remission without lymphoma-specific treatment].

Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) are common in HIV patients, although it is rare for primary lymphomas to develop in the larynx or hypopharynx. We present the case of a patient that was diagnosed of a high degree NHL, following a biopsy of the piriform sinus' lesion, taker by direct laryngoscopy. Simultaneously he was diagnosed as HIV. The interest of this paper is the total remission of the lymphoma seen after specific HIV treatment only.
