With the growing number of patients with Hiv infection there has been a marked increase in the incidence of unusual genitourinary pathologies. Urologists find themselves dealing with opportunistic infection (viral and fungal infection), penile and testicular neoplasm and neurological bladder. The Authors present their experience and describe the problems correlated with urogenital pathologies during Hiv infection.
