Brief Summary
This will be a cross sectional, pilot study to determine the burden of EBV related lymphomas in this population. Patient information including demographics and HIV status, history of HIV infection, HIV viral load and CD4 counts and ART history will be retrieved from the integrated patient management system (IPMS) Lymph node excision biopsy samples, collected at NHL between 2012 and 2017, from the patient with a diagnosis of lymphoma will be retrieved using IPMS from National Health Laboratory and analyzed by immunohistochemistry.
