title: [Secondary diseases in HIV-infected patients].
abstract: During the period of 1980-1996 the dispensary observation of 50 HIV-infected patients was carried out. The clinical forms of the infection were distributed among these patients as follows: asymptomatic forms in 18 patients, persisting generalized lymphadenopathy in 8 patients, pre-AIDS in 14 patients, AIDS in 10 patients. Secondary infections were registered at the pre-AIDS stage. Dermatoses, oropharyngeal candidiasis occurred most frequently: in 52% of the HIV-infected patients. Herpes virus infection was registered in 46% of the patients. At the stage of AIDS during the generalized herpes virus and cytomegalovirus infections were registered in 5 and 7 patients respectively. Generalized forms of combined infections (herpes virus + fungi) prevailed, which caused the death of 7 patients at the terminal stage of AIDS.
