 AB    Advances in medical management have enhanced both the quality and the
       quantity of life currently enjoyed by HIV-infected infants and children.
       Advances in surgical treatment have complemented these advances and
       contributed to the improving prognosis of HIV disease in the pediatric
       population. The resultant aging of the pediatric HIV population means
       that pediatric surgeons can expect to encounter HIV-infected patients on
       an ever-increasing basis. This article reviews the new advances in
       diagnosis and treatment of pediatric HIV disease most relevant to
       pediatric surgical practice.
