title: Hypogammaglobulinaemia and negative anti-HIV antibodies in AIDS.
abstract: Repeated bacterial infections are frequent in children with AIDS owing to the B cell abnormalities produced by HIV infection. We report on two infants who presented with hypogammaglobulinaemia and with no HIV antibodies, but with epidemiological, immunological, and clinical features of AIDS.
