[HIV infection and "malignant" strongyloidiasis].
Disseminated Strongyloides stercoralis infection occurs in immunocompromised patients. Despite the epidemiological overlap of HIV infection and strongyloidiasis observed in certain parts of the world, only six cases of dissemination have been reported in AIDS patients. The clinical presentation has no special features, except for the frequency of other opportunistic infections. The prognosis is poor. This lack of association between disseminated strongyloidiasis and HIV infection had led to the exclusion of extra-intestinal forms of this paraistosis from the revised classification of AIDS.
