    Abstract:
    In order to investigate the clinical oral manifestations associated with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and AIDS-related conditions, 922 male subjects were studied in a closed community (inmates). 669 were drug-abusers, 24 homosexual or bisexual men, 86 drug-abusers and homosexual or bisexual men, 143 without risk behaviour. Only 120 patients had antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus type I. All were throughly examined for evidence of oral disorders. The major finding was that almost all with AIDS and AIDS-related complex had oral manifestations one AIDS-patient was affected with hairy leukoplakia.
