Skin diseases are common problems in patients with HIV infection
and AIDS. Patients with HIV infection may present first to the
dermatologist or to many other groups of physicians. This book is
designed to help dermatologists and nondermatologists alike to
recognize the cutaneous manifestations of HIV infection and AIDS so
that diagnosis can be made quickly and therapy begun as soon as
possible.
It covers the entire spectrum of HIV associated cutaneous
diseases and emphasizes how they present in immunocompromised
patients. Each entity is discussed in detail, including clinical
presentation, histopathological findings, morphology and treatment.
The text is accompanied by colour photos of the highest
quality.
The latest treatments are described, including Highly Active
Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART). While HAART has transformed the
lives of patients with HIV and AIDS, these medications have side
effects and the authors reinforce the warning that HAART is not a
cure.
