title: Opportunistic infections and tumors in immunocompromised children.
abstract: HIV infection is responsible for a major proportion of the immunodeficiency disease seen in the pediatric population. The radiologic findings are varied and generally non-specific. The development of secondary neoplasms may present new diagnostic and therapeutic challenges as therapy for superimposed infections becomes more successful.
