Abstract Book
Conference Mission
Neurological manifestations, including HIV-dementia and opportunistic
infections and tumors are among the most threatening complications of
HIV infection. Although their incidence has dramatically decreased among
people who have access to combination antiretroviral treatments, this is
not the case in most areas of the world, where access is limited or
denied. On the other hand, new neurological problems are being observed
in countries where treatments are available, related to both changes in
the natural history of old diseases as well as emergence of novel
entities. This meeting has the objective of discussing current issues
related to neurological complications of HIV infection in a worldwide
perspective, including revision of current diagnostic definition
criteria for HIV-dementia.
