Abstract: Ever since its initial outbursts in high-risk groups, AIDS has had an appalling impact within the oncological sphere, since it combines opportunistic pathologies with the occurrence of malignancies caused by loss of defensive cells, thus allowing abnormal or cancerous cells to multiply. This paper conveys some recent concepts on AIDS, as well as a study undertaken at the 20 de Noviembre Hospital, aimed at identifying the most common opportunistic diseases which often occur in the oral cavity upon contracting AIDS.
