Popis:	Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection predisposes patients to the development of lymphomas, both due to immune suppression and coinfection with viruses with oncogenic potential. Coinfection with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) in particular has been associated with the development of aggressive lymphomas, including primary effusion lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Herein, we report an unusual case of HHV8-positive DLBCL with extensive cardiac involvement which was diagnosed at autopsy in a patient with long-standing untreated HIV infection.
