Abstract

The gastrointestinal tract is a frequent site of involvement in opportunistic infections. Many etiological agents are included and can be of bacterial, viral, fungal or parasitic origin. Objective: To analyze the infectious agents found in gastrointestinal biopsies. Methodology: Epidemiological, retrospective, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach of information from biopsies of the gastrointestinal tract and histopathological examinations with clinical data from patients, existing in databases of the pathology laboratory of the reference hospital for infectology in Amazonas. Results: Information from 492 biopsy slides from patients with HIV was analyzed, 69.9% of which were from male patients and the majority (83.9%) also had a diagnosis of gastritis as an associated disease. Most of these samples (77.3%) had bacteria as the main etiological agent, followed by fungi ((32.4%), viruses (4.9%) and parasites (0.9%). The most common species was Helicobacter pylori (75%), Candida sp (15.7%), Istoplasma capsulatun (7.4%), Cytomegalovirus (2.5) and Herpevirus (2.5%). frequency was the stomach (80.69%) and esophagus (12.6%). Regarding clinical symptoms, 34.5% had diarrhea as the main symptom. Conclusion: Histopathological examination is extremely important for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal tract infections.
