Abstract

Abstract We report an Epstein-Barr virus–associated smooth muscle tumor in an adult male with AIDS. The patient had multiple lung nodules seen on computed tomography of the chest and an endobronchial lung tumor identified on bronchoscopy. Initiation of antiretroviral therapy slowed the progression of the tumors.
