ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
HIV-infected patients are on the increase in Japan, and anti-HIV therapy improved their prognosis. It is expected that the number of operations in HIV patients will increase.METHODS:
We surveyed the prevalence of HIV 30,188 patients operated at International Medical Center of Japan, a major, HIV/AIDS hospital, from 2001 to 2007.RESULTS:
The number of HIV-positive cases was 389 in 7 years, and the prevalence of HIV seropositivity was 1.3% in total, 1.0% in scheduled, and 2.0% in emergent cases. The prevalence of male (2.0%) was higher than female (0.7%) patients and the prevalence was highest (9.2%) in male patients in their 30's. They were parallel with the HIV occurrence trend of Japan. The prevalence was the highest (2.4%) in the division of general surgery, as well as in obstetric and gynecology. The number of major surgery in HIV patients has been increasing.CONCLUSIONS:
We assume that the perioperative management in each hospital has become more important. The annual trend of the number of the operations performed in HIV-positive patients at our hospital did not show annual changes.
