title: [Neurological manifestations of the HIV infection].
abstract: As a result of improved therapeutic possibilities with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), an increasing prevalence of neurological complications of the HIV infection is observed. In particular, some authors now also describe a "morphogenesis" of the HIV-1-related encephalopathy. The current state of knowledge should be taken into account in the diagnostics and therapy of HIV-1-related encephalopathy, depression, progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy and polyneuropathy.
