Extensive alimentary and genital ulceration, mesenteric cysts, malabsorption, T-lymphocyte depletion and subsequent anaplastic bladder carcinoma
Abstract
The occurrence of several unusual disorders in a single patient prompted the question as to whether these may all have been part of a single syndrome, and the possible differential diagnosis is discussed in detail.
The case was thought to be an instance of acquired T-lymphocyte depletion leading to the development of premature malignant disease.
