https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YFsASNRpjiU/mqdefault.jpg 08/18/2025 06:09:58 A puzzling medical case: Despite 5 years of successful HIV treatment with undetectable viral load and strong immune system, this 10-year-old girl suddenly develops learning problems and borderline IQ. Her neurological exam is completely normal, but something is silently affecting her brain. Could it be the life-saving medications themselves? Join us as we explore HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder (HAND) and antiretroviral neurotoxicity in children. This case highlights why even "successful" HIV treatment requires careful monitoring of brain function. Medical professionals and students will learn about the complex relationship between HIV, ART medications like Zidovudine, and cognitive development in pediatric patients.
