title: [Acquired immunodepression syndrome in Guadeloupe].
abstract: Guadeloupe is a small Caribbean Island, with racial intermixed population. AIDS prevalence is four time higher than in France. Socio-economical and sanitary levels are similar to those of developed countries. On the other hand, AIDS has epidemiological patterns close to those of under developed countries. This contradiction is discussed. Epidemiological, clinical and psycho-sociological aspects are reviewed.
