Abstract:
:An increasing number of HIV-infected patients will require surgical therapy. The methods of diagnosis and therapeutic planning for HIV-infected patients are the same as for all other patients. Surgery should be advised if an operation is likely to have a positive effect on the patient's life. Most patients with AIDS with diseases for which surgical therapy is advantageous benefit from carefully chosen operations designed to solve specific problems.
