The increasing number of cases of HIV-infections made the pathology association wider. Between these pathologies, tumors and lymphoid neoplasias are the most frequent. Large series showed the association between B-cell non-hodgkin lymphomas, and HIV infection, but only exceptional cases of T-cell lymphomas were found. We present a case of T-cell cutaneous lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) in a patient with HIV-infection owing to the fact that very few: cases have been reported, the causal relationship is still unknown.
