Laryngeal cancer in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
International Journal of STD & AIDS, 07/23/09
Shushan S et al. – Patients with HIV infection, especially having a history of tobacco or alcohol abuse, should be carefully examined for head and neck carcinoma that is likely to be more aggressive. Following surgery, AIDS patients may have worse wound healing and a greater tendency to contract infections. Radiotherapy and especially chemotherapy may cause life–threatening complications. Although early detection may increase survival, curative treatment should involve many disciplines and extra caution.
