This work included all the files of adult PSW older than 18 years living with HIV followed from to in the selected center. Parameters of interest were: age, gender, HIV status, documented opportunistic infections and conditions. The files which did not contain all of the data mentioned above were not included. Results: Eighty-eight 88 files were retained according to the criteria. There were 53 women The most represented age group was the one from 36 to 45 years with The most diagnosed and recorded opportunistic infection was the Oral Candidiasis with Conclusion: Oral candidiasis This Immunosuppression determines the mortality and morbidity of infected patients by exposing them to frequent and often serious Opportunistic Infections OI [2].
These infections can be of bacterial, viral, parasitic, fungal or other origins [2] [3]. Other than immunosuppression, the occurrence of opportunistic infections depends on several other factors including the environment, hygiene and pathogens [2] [3].
In Sub-Saharan Africa, which is the region most affected by HIV infection, the number of studies on HIV and HIV-related infections conducted over the past 25 years is very insufficient compared to those conducted in Europe and other developed countries across the world [2]. Often, it is within this highly exposed population that infection initially spreads before spreading to other segments of the population [6].
In different centers, this follow up is often limited to the distribution of drugs and treatment of OIs [2]. Global care and follow up should take into account OIs whose diagnoses are still incomplete in our environment [11]. Data were collected using previously tested survey forms. They were entered on Windows Excel version Any infection caused by the immunosuppression, diagnosed by the clinical examination recorded on the HIV patient files, was considered to be an Opportunistic Infection.
The infections were confirmed by a series of 3 Immuno-chromatographic Tests according to WHO recommendations. Anyone who has made sexual practice a source of official remuneration has been considered a PSW. The study received the authorization from the selected center. Eighty-eight 88 files were retained according to the criteria. Table 1 presents the above results. Table 2 presents all the diagnosed Opportunistic Infections in the population. Based on the inclusion criteria, out of consulted, 88 files were selected.
