Abstract:
Abdominal complications as intercurrent infections and malignancies in AIDS-patients are one of the principal sources of morbidity and mortality in this disease. Air-contrast barium radiography of the gastrointestinal tract and computed tomography or sonography of the abdomen is of great clinical value in the evaluation of visceral and nodal lesions in AIDS. The diagnosis is impeded by the coexistence of several diseases in many of the patients and the nonspecificity of the radiographic findings.
