[Gastroscopic findings in HIV-positive patients].
In a retrospective study we reviewed the findings from 106 oesophago-gastro-duodenoscopies performed on HIV-positive patients between 01.01.93 and 31.12.94. Forty percent had Candida esophagei, 12% had Cytomegalovirus, 4% had atypical mycobacteria, 2% had Kaposi's sarcoma and 6% had Helicobacter pylori. Twelve percent of the patients received the diagnosis AIDS. The average CD4-cell count was 91 x 10(6)/l. The endoscopi findings were abnormal in 88% of HIV infected patients with gastrointestinal symptoms.
