AB 21 seroconversion HIV-infected subjects have been examined. 16 of them
presented with acute symptoms. The disease in the period of
seroconversion manifested with fever, weakness, headache, pain in the
throat, enlargement of peripheral lymph nodes, polymorphous eruption.
Typical mononucleosis-like syndrome occurred in 3 patients only. Half of
the patients had subclinical disease, no eruption was seen. Because of
clinical indications only 8 of 21 patients were examined for HIV
infection. One-third of the patients in seroconversion had moderate
thrombocytopenia, probably of autoimmune nature. Autoimmune disorder of
the thyroid was registered in 1 patient. The diagnosis of acute HIV
infection is not easy in view of rare occurrence of immunodeficiency
typical for this infection. Candidiasis of the mucosa was seen in 37.5%,
low levels of CD4-lymphocytes in 66.7% of the cases.
