Immunological studies in Kaposi's sarcoma in Uganda.

An evaluation of humoral and cellular immune mechanisms was performed on patients with Kaposi's sarcoma in Uganda. Antibody responses and immunoglobulin levels were normal in all patients studied. Nevertheless, a striking impairment in the delayed hypersensitivity response to dinitrochlorobenzene was noted in patients with the "malignant" type of tumour.

Immunological studies in tropical splenomegaly syndrome in Uganda.

An immunological evaluation carried out in eight patients with the tropical splenomegaly syndrome showed no evidence of impairment in cellular or humoral immunity, though raised levels of macroglobulins were noted in four patients. Hence gross immunological deficiency cannot be associated with the intense lymphoreticular proliferation observed in this disorder.
