Endocrinologic complications of HIV infection

The Medical Clinics of North America
A Danoff

Abstract

A variety of endocrine disorders occur in HIV-infected patients. The abnormalities may be a consequence of HIV infection, or may result from opportunistic infections, associated malignancies, illness-associated cytokine production, or use of therapeutic agents. Observations and controversies concerning adrenal, gonadal, thyroidal, and metabolic abnormalities are discussed. Heightened awareness of problems that might otherwise be overlooked will permit timely diagnosis and treatment of identified problems, which will enhance and potentially prolong the lives of people infected with HIV.
