[Bronchiectasia in HIV-positive patients].

Between July 1995 and July 1997 we diagnosed bronchiectasis confirmed by CT scan chest in 25 (18 men and 7 women) out of 295 hospitalised patients with HIV infection who suffered from lower respiratory infection. Median age at time of diagnosis of bronchiectasis was 32 years old. The patients were mostly intravenous drug addicts.
