title: [Acquired immunologic deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and other sexually transmissible diseases with gastrointestinal manifestations].
abstract: Various kinds of gastrointestinal symptoms are seen in connection with AIDS. Furthermore, because of special sexual practices, other sexually transmitted diseases are found, especially in the oral cavity, the oesophagus and the anorectum. Whereas in most of the cases infections can be treated successfully under a strict drug regimen, the treatment of malignant lymphomas or Kaposi's sarcoma is problematic. When the digestive tract is affected by the latter diseases, treatment is normally restricted to symptomatic measures. In the future, gastroenterologists will be faced with the above mentioned problems more frequently.
