title: Classification of oral lesions associated with HIV infection.
abstract: This article proposes a classification for oral lesions associated with HIV infection. The lesions can be classified into those with fungal, bacterial, or viral origin whereas other subgroups include neoplasms, neurologic disturbances, and lesions of unknown cause. This proposal is neither final nor exhaustive and is forwarded as a basis for epidemiologic surveys.
