Abstract

The review is dedicated to features of clinical manifestations of infections caused by Epstein- Barr virus (EBV) in HIV-infected patients, problems of diagnostics and execution of antiviral therapy in the case of combination of these infections. Individuals at AIDS stage develop tumors, associated with EBV: non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, including Berkitt's,lymphoma, primary B-cell lymphoma,of CNS, nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Formation of lymphoid interstitial pneumonitis and leukoplakia is known to be associated with EBV.
