Description

Neoplasms of haematopoietic or lymphoid tissues associated with human immunodeficiency virus disease refer to cancers that arise in the blood-forming tissues or lymphatic system due to the presence of HIV. These neoplasms can include various types of lymphomas and leukemias that are more prevalent in individuals with compromised immune systems.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term is used in formal medical contexts and should avoid colloquial alternatives. Common variants may include phrases like 'cáncer por VIH' or 'linfoma asociado al VIH', but it is crucial to stick to the glossary term for accuracy. Misunderstandings may arise from the complexity of the term and its association with HIV-related conditions.
