[Infections and other opportunistic processes in a group of Cuban stage-IV HIV patients]
Abstract
Forty Cuban patients affected by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), belonging to Group IV, assisted during a year at the Pedro Kourí Tropical Medicine Institute, are reported. Pneumocystis carinii, cryptosporidiosis, mucocutaneous herpes simplex, oral candidiasis and multidermatoma herpes zoster were the most commonly found infections. Other non-opportunistic diseases such as dermatitis seborrhoeica and onychomycosis were also present.
