Alterações dermatológicas em crianças com Aids e sua relação com categorias clínico-imunológicas e carga viral

Abstract: Resumo: FUNDAMENTOS: Desde o início da epidemia da Aids as dermatoses têm sido freqüentemente descritas em pacientes com essa doença, com relatos de casos atípicos e estudos de séries de pacientes adultos; no entanto, há poucas publicações sobre alterações cutâneas em pacientes pediátricos com Aids.

“…Other studies carried out in Brazil encountered similar results. [5][6][7] Among the clinical criteria of severity (moderate/severe), recurrent or chronic diarrhea occurred in 44% of the cases, followed by recurrent bacterial infections in 43% and anemia in 41% of the cases. These were the most common manifestations of AIDS and were the main AIDS-defining diseases in the present study.…”

“…It is also known that after the start of the ARVT there is a somewhat accelerated control of the viral replication and a slower and progressive increase of the TCD4+ and, depending on their recovery, latent immunological disturbances can become apparent, as it is the case of AD. 10 Childhood prurigo was present in 52,5% of the cases on the study by CARVALHO et al (2003) and it was more frequent in patients from the mild and moderate immunological categories which, according to the author, is due to the fact that the dermatosis needs a partially intact immune system to occur. Our results were similar on the age range of 1 to 5 years however, on the range of 6 to 12 years the occurrence of prurigo was higher in children with immunological classification 3, representing 25% of the patients with CD4<200.…”
