ABSTRACT
Human Immunedeficiency Virus/ Acquired Immunedeficiency Symdrome [HIV/AIDS] has assumed epidemic proportions. The disease is spreading at an alarming rate globally and it does not discriminate between race, gender or organs. Some features of this multi-organ disease are often missed by clinicians especially those working in busy centers; hence the need to frequently highlighting them. This review draws the attention of the otolaryngologist to the various manifestations of this infection in the Neck and Head region, where HIV disease is associated with a variety of problems and as high as 70% of HIV infected patients eventually develop such conditions. The review is grouped according to anatomic sites in order to facilitate retention and proper management
