Investigation of the hospitalized patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection in Shanxi Cancer Hospital / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of the hospitalized patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in Shanxi Cancer Hospital.Methods 70 patients with HIV positive were detected in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from January 2004 to December 2014.55 patients with HIV infection combined with malignant tumors were diagnosed by histopathology,however,15 patients were HIV infection alone.Results 55 cases of HIV infection combined with malignant tumors were 7-80 years old,and 46-55 years old was a high incidence of disease age,15 patients with simple HIV infection were 35 years old (7-55 years old).During 15 kinds of malignant tumors complicated with HIV infection,lung cancer was the most [11 cases (20 ％)],followed by hepatocellular carcinoma in 5 cases (9 ％),gastric cancer in 5 cases (9 ％),and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 5 cases (9 ％).In 70 patients with HIV infection,farmers accounted for 43 ％ (30 cases),they were significantly higher than other occupations.Conclusions The age of HIV infected patients with malignant tumors is higher than that of patients with single HIV infection,which may because of immunocompromised patients have higher incidence of secondary opportunistic infections or malignant tumors.This study shows that with the extension of the survival of patients with the HIV infection,the incidence of malignant tumor is increasing.
