Abstract :
<p>Introduction The acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a retroviral disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) ,which is characterized by the profound immuno suppression leading to< /> opportunistic infections, secondary neoplasms, and neurologic manifestation.< /> Objective: To assess the spleen and lymph nodes patterns Ultrasonographically for AIDS patients.< /> Materials &amp; Methods: Ultrasonographic of the spleen and lymph nodes were performed on 200 patients with known< /> AIDS with concerning on spleens and lymph nodes echogenicity. The effect of age, gender, onset, spleen parenchymal disease and lymph adenopathy was statistically analyzed.< /> Results: The data was discussed and presented in percentage and frequencies between patients age, sex, status,< /> spleen and lymph nodes disease. Then statistically the results was analyzed.< /> Conclusion: The study proved that AIDS were subject to multiple abnormalities that can be diagnosed by ultrasound,< /> this supports the use of ultrasound in AIDS units.< /> Recommendation: using ultrasound routinely in the treatment and diagnosis of AIDS units and follow up patients with< /> AIDS, also researches could constitute a base for further research in this field. </p>
