ABSTRACT

Introduction: Anemia, cytopenias and gastrointestinal symptoms are common findings in the population that are infected by the HIV.
Objective: To describe hematological parameters and the T-CD4 cell counts in HIVpatients hospitalized for gastrointestinal symptoms that were taken to endoscopy.
Methods: A descriptive study in 54 HIV patients who consulted for digestive symptoms and requiring high or low digestive endoscopy during 2014 in a third level University Hospital of Bucaramanga, Colombiawas carried out. Sociodemographicdata were questioned, it was the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), it was registered digestive symptoms, type of procedure, data from blood count, T-CD4 count, myelogram, bone marrow biopsy and mortality during hospital stay were recorded.
Results: The prevalence of anemia, leucopenia and thrombocytopenia were 83.3 %, 37 % and 20.3 %, respectively. Bicytopenia and pancytopenia were found in 25.9 % and 14.8 %. Bicytopenia patients with pancytopenia and underwent bone marrow study to 57.1 % and 87.5 %, respectively. A trend of lower T-CD4 lymphocyte count was found in patients with anemia.
Conclusions: Hematological disorders are common in patients with HIV and digestive symptoms, with high prevalence of anemia. T-CD4 counts were found notoriously low.
