Wrap text around table stretching over the whole page heigth

Question

I am trying to wrap text around a table within the wraptable environment.

My code looks like the following:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
    \usepackage{amssymb}
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    \usepackage{wrapfig}
    \usepackage{booktabs}
    \usepackage{rotating}
    \usepackage{lipsum}
    \usepackage{lscape}


    \begin{document}
        \begin{wraptable}{l}{0.8\linewidth}

            \footnotesize
            \centering
            \caption[]{my caption \label{tab:summary}}
            \begin{sideways}
                \begin{tabular}{p{\dimexpr 0.2\linewidth-2\tabcolsep} 
                        p{\dimexpr 0.75\linewidth-2\tabcolsep} 
                        p{\dimexpr 0.05\linewidth-2\tabcolsep}}
                    \toprule
                    \textbf{Sample type}                          & \textbf{Definitions}                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              & \textbf{n} \\ \midrule
                    Paired, pre and post treatment - deemed cured & VL treated for 4-5 weeks, with improvement in clinical symptoms and no evidence of relapse at any time 6 months after treatment. Samples were taken at or around the start of treatment and at 6 months.                                                                                                          & 25 pairs   \\
                    Unpaired, relapse                             & VL treated and subsequently relapsed to active disease. Sampled at the time of relapse diagnosis                                                                                                                                                                                                                  & 26         \\

                    Asymptomatic non-progressors                  & Asymptomatic seropositive as above but did not develop VL during follow-up of at least 3 years.                                                                                                                                                                                                                   & 4          \\ \bottomrule
                \end{tabular}%
            \end{sideways}
        \end{wraptable}
        \lipsum[1]
    \end{document}

I does not look too bad, though I wanted to have the table stretching over the whole height of the page as well as the caption rotated, like in the code shown below

\begin{landscape}
    \begin{table}[!htb]

            \toprule
            \textbf{Sample type}                          & \textbf{Definitions}                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              & \textbf{n} \\ \midrule

        \end{tabular}%
        \caption[]{.}
        \label{tab_sera}
    \end{table}
\end{landscape}

With this code, however, I cannot wrap any text around the table.

It should be noted that \intextsep also affects normal floats, so you might want to make the change temporary.
