| Abstract | Recent advances in therapy mean that prompt diagnosis of AIDS can prolong the life of those infected. Hairy leukoplakia is a new clinical entity that is one of the early signs of HIV seropositivity, and the GDP is well placed to recognize this lesion and refer patients on for treatment. In this second article in the twice-yearly Aids Commentary series the author describes how to diagnose this new condition, and the treatments that are available. |
