Three important issues have been the focus of much recent attention in the biology of AIDS‐related lymphomas. The altered epidemiology in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy, the role of herpesviruses including human herpesvirus 8 and the molecular genetics of HIV‐associated T‐cell lymphomas. These topics are covered in this article and their potential application to the clinical management of AIDS‐related lymphomas are discussed.
