ABSTRACT

Liver and biliary tract disease in patients with HIV infection is common and is related to immunosuppression, therapy and coinfection with hepatitis B and/or C virus. In this way, we can observe the development of opportunistic infections or malignancies related or not to HIV, viral hepatitis, drug toxicity, multifactorial hepatic steatosis and cirrhosis. We review each one of these complications and major clinical elements for diagnosis. Finally, an algorithm for the study of the complications of the liver and biliary tract in these patients is proposed.


La enfermedad hepática y de la vía biliar en pacientes con infección por VIH es común y se relaciona con la inmunosupresión, el tratamiento y la coinfección por virus B y/o C. De esta forma, podemos observar el desarrollo de infecciones oportunistas, neoplasias relacionadas o no a VIH, hepatitis virales, toxicidad por drogas, esteatosis hepática multifactorial y cirrosis. Revisamos cada una de estas complicaciones y los elementos clínicos más importantes para su diagnóstico. Finalmente, se propone un algoritmo de estudio de las complicaciones hepáticas y de la vía biliar en estos pacientes.
