  • Title: [Isolation of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from the cerebro-spinal fluid].
    Author: Fiore JR, Angarano G, Fico C, Casalino C, Carbonara S, Pastore G.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1990 Feb; 66(2):195-9. PubMed ID: 2357338.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a simple and available technique for HIV isolation from cerebrospinal fluid and report preliminary results obtained. Exposed data indicate that neurological involvement occurs early in the natural history of HIV infection and that the virus may be recovered in CSF at all stages of the disease, regardless of immunological conditions of patients. Virological evaluation of CSF may be important in understanding pathogenetic aspects of HIV infection and in clinical management of infected patients.
