Abstract:
Two cases of abdominal distention and extremity muscle wasting in HIV-infected men who were receiving HAART are reported. In both instances, clinician and patient alike were concerned about the possibility of HIV-associated lipodystrophy. However, further investigation led to a diagnosis of disseminated cancer in both patients.
