Generally, there are at least two parts, some as many as a dozen. The enlarged lymph nodes did not respond to the general treatment, and often continued to expand for more than half a year.

Splenomegaly can occur in 3 / 4 patients.

Repeated infection will accelerate the development of the disease, so that the disease into a typical AIDS phase. About half of the patients have severe tinea pedis, usually unilateral, and lack of effective response to local treatment. Staphylococcus infection and bullous pyoderma often occur in the armpit and groin of the patients.
