Pulmonary malakoplakia associated with immunodeficiency by HTLV-1 and HIV
Malakoplakia is a rare chronic inflammatory disease often confused with neoplasia. In this paper we report two cases of pulmonary Malakoplakia, both with typical clinical diagnosis of tuberculosis and lung cancer. A patient with human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1) and diagnosis of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, and another patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which was treated for tuberculosis, but, after pulmonary lobectomy, was evidenced Rodococosis equi, progressed to death.
