Abstract

 Background and objective: A wide range of skin problems can be seen in AIDS. Presence of the skin lesions in AIDS patients can be regarded as a good index for assessment of the immunologic and psycho logic status of the patients. This study deals with skin problems in HIV positive patients referring to HIVIAIDS counseling center in Sanandaj in 2005-2006. Material and Methods: This is a cross sectional descriptive- analytic study. The method of sampling was census and 74 HIV positive patients from HIV/AIDS counseling center and the city jail took part in our study. Dermatologic exam and diagnosis of the skin lesions were made by the dermatologists of the medical school of Kurdistan university.Results: 74 patients, 71 males and 3 females with the mean age of 34.47 (±7.7) years participated in our study. 68 (91.9%) patients had at least one dermatologic disease. The mean number of SKIN DISEASEs was 2.46 (±1.79). The most abundant skin manifestations were absence of the nail lunula in 73 (9806%), gingivitis in 60 (82.4%), pallor of the nail bed in 38 (51.4%), purities in 30 (50.5%), photosensitivity in 26(3501), seborrheic dermatitis in 24 (3204%), oral candidiasis in 23 (31.1%) and folliculitis 22 (29.7%) patients. There was a significant relationship between age of the patients and the number of SKIN DISEASEs. We noticed a decrease in diversity of SKIN DISEASEs by increasing age (p<0.0001).Conclusion: According to the results of our study and other studies we conclude that the prevalence of skin problems in HIV positive patients is high. Several SKIN DISEASEs are contagious and are important in view of public health care. Therefore we recommend regular skin examination in HIV positive patients.
