  • Snapshot
    • A 45-year-old man with a history of HIV infection presents to his primary care doctor for a rash. He had been on antiretroviral medications for his HIV infection for years. Six months ago, he lost his job and his insurance and ran out of medication 5 months ago. He had been feeling fine until a week ago when he developed a painless rash on his face, trunk, and legs. He has also had some night sweats and low-grade fevers. On physical exam, he has multiple scattered reddish purple macules and papules. There are also purple nodules on his oral mucosa. A skin biopsy reveals neoplastic spindle-shaped cells and a lymphocytic infiltrate.
