| Popis: | There is growing evidence that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection can be transmitted from female to male after only 2 sexual contacts. The authors present a case in which the wife was infected with HIV in March 1986 as a result of transfusion of blood from a homosexual. She tested positive for HIV in January 1987 and in February was notified of her positive test result. The couple had had regular unprotected sexual intercourse between April 1986 and February 1987. In February 1987 the patients husband was negative for HIV infection and condom use was initiated. By October 1987 the husband was found to be seropositive for HIV. The couple reported that the condom had torn on several occasions since protected intercourse was initiated. It cannot be determined whether HIV was transmitted before February during unprotected intercourse and the husband seroconverted after the 1st blood sampling or whether HIV was transmitted after notification of the wifes seropositive status. |
