Unusual oral findings of the toxic epidermal necrolysis in an HIV-infected patient: a case report.

Erythema multiforme (EM), Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) have been reported as possible adverse effects of some classes of first-line antiretroviral drugs (ART) for HIV treatment. Herein we report an unusual presentation of TEN lesions associated with ART in an HIV-infected patient. The patient presented disseminated cutaneous eruption and oral lesions from the lips to the oropharynx region, causing odynophagia and dysphagia.

Oral health and health-related quality of life in HIV patients.

Background: Oral health care may improve the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of HIV/AIDS patients. We aimed to evaluate oral health and HRQoL of HIV/AIDS patients using antiretroviral therapy.

Methods: A cross-sectional study included 120 HIV-infected patients, aged ≥18 years, from February, 2016 to September, 2017.
