Usual and unusual radiologic manifestations of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in children

Abstract

AIDS is being recognized with ever-increasing frequency in children. This article includes a discussion of the common radiographic manifestations of AIDS as well as some rarely encountered problems. It is hoped that with heightened awareness of this spectrum of radiographic findings, radiologists may contribute to a prompt diagnosis of AIDS so that appropriate short-term therapy and counseling may be instituted.
