Oral manifestations are common in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, signaling immune deficiency. Recognizing these diverse lesions, including opportunistic infections and cancers, is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Oral medicine
  • Immunology
  • Infectious diseases

Context:

  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection frequently leads to oral mucosal disorders.
  • These oral conditions can be the initial signs of HIV-induced immunodeficiency.
  • Impaired immune function in HIV allows opportunistic infections and malignancies to thrive in the oral cavity.

Purpose:

  • To review the spectrum of oral mucosal manifestations associated with HIV infection.
  • To highlight the diagnostic, therapeutic, and epidemiological significance of these lesions.
  • To discuss specific oral conditions, including opportunistic infections and tumors.

Summary:

  • Oral manifestations in HIV infection range from opportunistic infections (e.g., candidiasis, herpes simplex) to specific lesions like oral hairy leukoplakia.

  • Malignancies such as Kaposi's sarcoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and squamous cell carcinoma are significant causes of morbidity in AIDS patients.
  • Other oral issues like drug eruptions, purpura, ulcers, and xerostomia also occur, with some etiologies remaining unclear.
  • Impact:

    • Increased awareness of oral findings aids in the early diagnosis of HIV infection.
    • Understanding these lesions improves management strategies for HIV-positive individuals.
    • Recognizing specific oral manifestations is vital for epidemiological surveillance and patient care in HIV/AIDS.
