title: [Clinical syndromes in HIV infection (1st of 2 parts)].
abstract: The spectrum of clinical manifestations associated to HIV infection is very broad. In addition to processes that may be attributed to the virus itself, multiple opportunistic infections can develop while the immunodeficiency develops. Any organ or system of the organism may be affected by these processes. The main clinical syndromes in AIDS and the differential diagnosis of their potential etiologies are reviewed.
