[Expert assessment of neuropsychiatric symptoms in HIV-infected patients]

Expertising on HIV-infected patients will become more frequent in future. These can be suffering - besides already existing mental disturbances - from further health disturbances of reactive and cerebro-organic origin caused by the HIV infection. Expertising requires extensive diagnostic exploration especially for clearly defining and delineating signs and symptoms of mental and cerebro-organic origin. The final verdict depends on the neuropsychiatric pattern of signs and symptoms and on the results of the additional rexaminations.
