[Practical precautions in urology against the human immunodeficiency virus].
As infection from HIV spreads, the features of the population at risk change. In fact, we have been treating more cases with different features. Numerous studies have been published in the medical literature aimed at making the health staff aware of the need to take precautions while caring for these patients, most of whom are HIV infected but apparently healthy. However, the information on prevention of infection for staff in the different specialist settings who are less accustomed to treating these patients seem to be relatively scant. We believe that it is necessary to provide and make known the simple, yet important preventive measures in the urological setting.
