Abstract
Acquired Immunodefficiency Syndrome strikes all socioeconomic and age strata, including people over 60 years of age. Despi te our small patient sample, we have found a greater difficulty in diagnosing people in this age group, expressed by longer evolutions until the making of appropriate diagnostic !'fOCedures. Patients were analysed regarding their risk factors and/or behavior, as well as clinicai manifestations. ln addition, some possible causes for the increasing incidence of AIDS in older people are suggested.
