title: [The lipodystrophy syndrome and protease inhibitor therapy in HIV infection].
abstract: The accumulation of adipose tissue in the dorsocervical region is a typical finding in patients with intensive glycocorticoid function. This finding was described in numerous HIV infected patients. Combined antiretroviral therapy that included a protease inhibitor implied the suggestion that dorsocervical fat pad could be a consequence of protease inhibitor therapy. This is a case report of a patient who developed a similar changes a year after the beginning of protease inhibitor therapy.
