WOMEN

Epidemiology of HIV-Related Oral Manifestations in Women: A Review

Oral Lesions in 15% of HIV-Infected Women

Most Common Oral Lesion - Candidiasis Prevalence of Hairy Leukoplakia and

Kaposi's Sarcoma Significantly Less Common in Women

Oral Dis 1997 Sep;3(3):206.

Many Manifestations of HIV Disease are Similar in Men & Women

Other Conditions Differ In Frequency:– HIV-Infected Men 8 X’s More Likely to

Develop Kaposi's Sarcoma – Women Have Higher Rates of

Esophageal Candidiasis & Herpes Simplex Infections

CHANGING PREVALENCE OF

ORAL MANIFESATIONS

Overall Prevalence of Oral Lesions Has Decreased (47.6%-37.5%)

Hairy Leukoplakia (25.8%-11.4%) & Necrotizing Periodontal Diseases (4.8%-1.7%) Decreased

HIV Salivary Gland Disease Increased (1.8%-5.0%)

Candidiasis (20.3%-16.7%), Aphthae (3.7%-3.0%), Oral Warts (2.2%-4.0%), Herpes Simplex Virus Lesions (1.8%-2.0%) and Kaposi’s Sarcoma (1.1%-0.3%) Unchanged

HIV/AIDS Women's Health: Oral Lesions in HIV-Positive Women

Reduced in HAART Therapy

503 HIV+ women over 6 years Incidence of EC fell to 2.99 percent

from 5.48 percent PC fell to 2.85 percent from 6.70

percent No changes were seen in HL or warts

CANDIDIASIS

Reported in 7-93% of HIV+ /AIDS

Patients

FOUR MAJOR TYPES

Pseudomembranous Hyperplastic Erythematous (Atrophic) Angular Cheilitis

PSEUDOMEMBRANOUS

White or Yellow Patches Easily Removed w/ Scraping

Yielding Bleeding Surface Any Mucosal Surface (Palate,

Buccal or Labial Mucosa, Tongue)

HYPERPLASTIC CANDIDIASIS

White Plaques Can’t Be Removed w/ Scraping

Buccal Mucosa Most Common Site in HIV+ Patients

ERYTHEMATOUS (ATROPHIC)

Fiery Red Surfaces to Hardly Discernible Pink Spots

Most Common Location - Palate & Dorsum of Tongue

Spotty Areas in Buccal Mucosa

ANGULAR CHEILITIS

Common in Elderly Fissures Radiating From

Angles of Mouth

PREDISPOSING FACTORS

SYSTEMIC FACTORS
