Hi all,

I am interested in oncology nursing and I recently became aware of AIDS-related cancers. I am wondering if these patients are treated in an AIDS setting or an oncology setting? What treatments do they receive and what are the specific cancers?

Thanks!

Often, HIV and AIDS (with or without malignancy) are managed either in cancer centers or in large hospitals that also treat cancer, so the distinction of AIDS setting vs. oncology setting isn't an easy one to make.

Kaposi's sarcoma and certain types of lymphoma are among the AIDS-related cancers, to get you started.
