Abstract

A clinical case of the asymptomatic onset of HIV-infection on the background of clinically significant osteochondrosis and hypertension in the absence of an epidemiological history, and an analysis of the scientific literature on the problem are presented. It is important to note the low level of viral load in the patient, but there are conflicting reports in the literature about the correlation of levels of HIV viral RNA in the cerebrospinal fluid in patients with neurological manifestations. The treatment and diagnostic tactics in diagnostically unclear cases are discussed.
