Abstract: | The AIDS epidemic has made previously uncommon infectious diseases and tumors commonplace in HIV-infected individuals. In this article we discuss specific cases of various infections and tumors of the sinonasal tract. Several of these diseases may be the presenting signs of HIV-seropositivity and AIDS. As a result, the clinician first to see such patients must be aware of the diagnosis of these diseases and tumors so that proper testing and treatment may ensue. |
