    This study details Spain's first pediatric AIDS cases from vertical transmission. It highlights the characteristics and incidence of infants born to HIV-positive mothers, emphasizing clinical and laboratory findings.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Infectious Diseases
    • Virology
    • Immunology

    Background:

    • The study addresses the critical issue of pediatric Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) transmission.
    • It focuses on vertical transmission (mother-to-child) as a primary route in infants.
    • The research context is Spain, providing regional data on HIV/AIDS in neonates.

    Observation:

    • Two infant cases of pediatric AIDS acquired through vertical transmission are reported.
    • One infant presented with AIDS, while the second had AIDS-related complex (ARC).
    • Data on neonatal populations born to HIV-positive mothers in the region over 18 months are included.

    Findings:

    • The first pediatric AIDS patient, born to drug-addicted HIV-positive parents with ARC, died at 22 months.

  • The second patient, a boy born to a sexual partner of an at-risk individual, died at 17 months.
  • Literature review up to September 1986 identified 369 pediatric AIDS cases globally, with 265 vertically transmitted (7 in Spain).
  • Implications:

    • This research underscores the importance of understanding and managing vertically transmitted HIV/AIDS in pediatric populations.
    • The findings highlight the need for early detection and intervention strategies for infants born to HIV-positive mothers.
    • Further investigation into clinical, radiological, and autopsy findings is pertinent for improving patient outcomes.
