Three important issues have been the focus of much recent attention in the biology of AIDS-related lymphomas. The altered epidemiology in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy, the role of herpesviruses including human herpesvirus 8 and the molecular genetics of HIV-associated T-cell lymphomas. These topics are covered in this article and their potential application to the clinical management of AIDS-related lymphomas are discussed.
