Abstract
Hematological abnormalities have been found in the majority of patients with AIDS, in addition to immunological derangements [1]. Furthermore, treatment of opportunistic infections with folic acid antagonists and of neoplasms with cytostatic drugs is frequently complicated by profound thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and anemia, thus resulting in the withdrawal of the drugs.
Supported by a grant from the Bundesgesundheitsamt.
