| الوصف: | Most HIV infection in children is acquired by vertical transmission from mother to child.Identification of HIV in pregnant women is key to transmission prevention.Clinical manifestations differ from the adult population.Pulmonary disease is the commonest manifestation of HIV infection in children and accounts for 50% of deaths.The commonest abdominal manifestation is chronic infection of the gastrointestinal tract.Neoplasia is greatly increased in the paediatric HIV population, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma being the commonest tumour.Modern management has greatly improved the outlook for Western children with HIV.80% of HIV-infected children in the third world die before their third birthday. |
