title: [Serologic evaluation of circulating immune complexes in patients with HIV infections].
abstract: In AIDS, immunitary system dysfunctions are manifold and regard both T and B-lymphocytes. The increased levels of circulating immune complexes (CIC) in HIV-Ab positive patients, immune complexes abnormalities, should be considered as an epiphenomenon of humoral immunity altered function; therefore, they are devoid of any diagnostic value.
