AB Records of patients with concomitant HIV infection and human
tuberculosis were analysed. Nine out of 232 AIDS patients (4%) developed
human tuberculosis with a preponderance (6/9) of immigrants from
sub-Saharan Africa. In three patients the diagnosis was delayed because
of atypical manifestations of the disease and lack of typical chest
X-ray findings. Tuberculin skin tests were positive in only three
patients, and became negative in one patient who developed two episodes
of tuberculosis. All the patients who complied with the conventional
triple anti-tuberculosis regimen responded well, and no
multidrug-resistant tuberculosis was observed.
