Abstract
This essay illustrates the spectrum of sonographic findings of various renal manifestations of AIDS. The most common renal abnormality in patients with AIDS is nephropathy, which is manifested by deterioration of renal function and proteinuria. Acute tubular necrosis, intrarenal infections, focal nephrocalcinosis, hydronephrosis, and neoplasms also may occur.
