 AB    Gastrointestinal adenocarcinoma is a disease seen uncommonly in
       HIV-infected patients. The present case is that of a 25-yr-old black
       male who was HIV positive and developed right-sided colon
       adenocarcinoma. This case is an example of the growing number of
       adenocarcinomas of the gastrointestinal tract being reported in HIV
       patients. Cases of gastric, pancreatic, and colonic adenocarcinoma in
       HIV patients are reviewed herein. It seems possible that HIV may play an
       etiologic role in the increased chance of developing gastrointestinal
       adenocarcinoma.
