summary
- There are no specific syndromes of HIV infection in genitourinary tract.
- Presence of Kaposi Sarcoma or lymphoma may give evidence of HIV infection.
- Also testicular tumors are more fre±uent diagnosed at AIDS patients. Every
- opportunistic infection of genitourinary tract caused by unusual pathogens
- viral, fungal, tuberculosis
- people. Haematuria of unknown etiology may be an indication for HIV testing.
- The main mode of transmission of HIV infection are sexual contacts but also
- exposure to blood, semen and urine containing infected blood. Possible
- transmission of HIV infection to health care workers occurs during physical
- examination, especially digital rectal examination. There is also exposure to
- HIV infection performing transrectal ultrasound examination and the prostate
- biopsy. Endoscopic procedures (cystoscopy, TUR, PCNL, URS) make also
- possible exposure to infected blood mixed with urine. Risk for HIV transmission
- to health care workers isn't high and is estimated less than 0.5%.
