Description

Neurologists are encountering more and more patients with AIDS and the problems associated with the effects of AIDS on the nervous system. This concise text provides guidelines for differential diagnosis and management, covering common neurological symptoms, pathology, clinical features, investigations and management of the individual pathogens and complications. It is intended to be a source of advice on what to do next, rather than burdening the clinician with an excessive amount of basic science. This text should be of use to neurologists in training and practice, infectious disease physicians, STD physicians and general physicians.
