Diagnosis of cellulitis in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus.

I Diaz1, S Neelagaru, L Dall.   

Abstract

A prospective microbiological evaluation of cellulitis in 22 patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus was performed. Patients with helper lymphocyte counts of less than 200 cells/mm(3) had a greater frequency of positive cultures. The most frequently isolated pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes, and initial antibiotic therapy should cover these Gram-positive cocci.
