Abstract
Changes in the natural course of Trypanosoma cruzi infection have been associated with immunosuppression. We report here a case of the reactivation of Chagas' disease in a patient with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with gastric, oesophageal and laryngeal involvement. This is the first report describing the involvement of the larynx by T. cruzi.
