Abstract
Adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma is a tumoral proliferation of activated mature T lymphoid cells whose causative agent is a retrovirus known as Human T-cell leukemia virus type 1. This virus rarely causes inflammatory bronchioloalveolar disorders. We report the case of a patient hospitalized with diffuse interstitial lung disease and whose etiological assessment revealed adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma (HTLV-1).Entities:
