Sumario: | HIV has long been associated with a number of inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic skin conditions. In the era of anti-retroviral therapy, we have discovered even more about the relationship between skin disease and chronic immunosuppression.

Here, we summarize recent updates in the field of HIV dermatology and make recommendations to providers caring for these patients. |
