Popis: | A range of oral manifestations in a patient who was subsequently confirmed as infected with the human immune deficiency virus are presented. Most of these lesions have been previously reported in the literature, and represent opportunistic infection changes resulting from immune deficiency. The rare occurrence of a malignant large cell lymphoma intra-orally in this patient is also reported. The need for clinicians to treat all oral lesions as potentially infective and to wear gloves routinely is stressed. |
