| pubmed:abstractText |
The current worldwide epidemic of AIDS will have profound consequences not only for the delivery of health care, but also for forensic pathologists and investigators. AIDS continues to spread in definable risk groups, and deaths within some of these groups may fall under the jurisdiction of the medical examiner. We outline an approach to handling AIDS deaths based upon case definition, diagnosis by available information and procedures, and proper infection control. We also discuss medicolegal issues surrounding deaths due to AIDS.
