PURPOSE: To identify infectious pathologies associated with the ground with the HIV-infected patients and to report socio-demographic characteristics of the infected patients.
METHOD: This descriptive and analytical study covered one period active of January 1, 1995 to December 31, 2005. We exploited the data base of the laboratory of bacteriology and virology of the CHU Aristide Dantec of Dakar. Thus on 530 requests for serology coming from the department of general surgery, 61 was positive with the HIV.

The HIV 1 was found at 25 (78,2%) patients, the HIV 2 at 5 (15,6%) patients and the association of the two viruses at 2 (6,2%) patients. Twenty seven (84,4%) patients was received in emergency and 5 (15,6%) had a programmed intervention. Suppuratives diseases of the proctologic area were in the first rang with 10 (31,2%) cases, followed by pleuro-pulmonary suppuratives diseases, 8 (25%) cases, then of the suppuratives wound infections, 6 (18,8%) and finally of the intra abdominal suppuratives infections and of the candidosis of the esofagus, 4 (12,5%) cases each one.

These patients were generally received in an emergency context for anorectal, pleuro-pulmonary or parietal suppuratives diseases.
