title: [Maternal-fetal transmission of HIV in Catalonia and the Balearic Islands].
abstract: Two hundred and ninety three cases of children born of HIV positive mothers have been observed between January 1984 and June 1988 in Catalonia and Balearic Islands, with a ration of 9.5/10,000 newborns. Sex was not significant in the infected group. Most of the cases (68%) have been detected since 1987 and represent a significant increase in HIV positive children and thus of those who will present with clinical manifestations of this infection.
