[HIV infection caused by nursing care? HIV infection in the mother of a son with AIDS].
The case of a 78-year-old woman with a 2-year history of chronic persistent oral candidiasis, in whom an HIV infection (stage III, Frankfurt Classification according to Brodt, stage 6 Walter Reed Staging Classification, stage IV WHO Classification, manifest AIDS according to the new 1988 Classification) was diagnosed, is reported. The 44-year-old son (since deceased) of the patient was known to have had the acquired immune deficiency syndrome since December, 1986. Transmission of HIV from son to mother seems likely.
