Abstract

A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted to investigate the manifestations of oral mucosal lesions and related factors among 110 HIV/AIDS patients at Dong Da General Hospital, Hanoi, from February 2022 to February 2023. The results showed that the prevalence of oral mucosal lesions was 14.5%. Pseudomembranous candidiasis was the most common lesion, accounting for 10%, followed by recurrent aphthous ulcers at 2.7% and Herpes stomatitis at 1.8%. No cases of oral hairy leukoplakia or Kaposi Sarcoma were recorded. There was a statistically significant association between CD4 cell count and the prevalence of lesions. Patients with a CD4 count < 500 cells/mm³ had a 4.736 times higher risk of developing oral mucosal lesions compared to those with a CD4 count >= 500 cells/mm³ (p=0.009). No statistically significant associations were found between oral mucosal manifestations and the duration of antiretroviral (ARV) therapy.
