Dear Sir,
Thank you for showing interest in the article, regarding your query of the relationship between HIV seroprevalence and malignancy among Indian population. I am glad to bring to your notice that in our institution we strictly adhere to the practice of pre-operative evaluation of all patients, which require the individual to undergo all necessary blood investigations which includes HIV testing which is a mandatory test for pre anaesthetic evaluation also. Further, the patient was HIV seronegative and hence, the HIV status of the patient was not specifically mentioned in our article. So according to the algorithm mentioned in your query this case cannot be regarded as a second case report of HIV associated oral leiomyoma in the literature.
