St Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis.

The number of HIV-infected children and adolescents is expected to increase during the next decade. Most of these patients are likely to receive nearly all of their healthcare from primary care physicians. Management must be multifaceted and consist of medical care for acute illnesses, routine pediatric care that includes immunizations, and social service intervention.
