The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the virus that causes AIDS (acquired immune-deficiency syndrome). Head and neck are the most common sites in contamination with this virus. HIV can affect outer, middle and inner parts of the ear. Changing in the color of the skin, effusion, infection and sudden hearing loss are some types of the audiological and ontological findings in such patients.
