OBJECTIVE: To describe the causes of death occurring during the antiretroviral therapy in Casablanca.

METHODS: Retrospective study of a cohort of HIV positive patients attending the infectious diseases unit of Casablanca receiving antiretroviral therapy. Files of 91 patients who died were analyzed.

RESULTS: Since June 1999, 1243 patients were treated and 91 deaths occurred (7, 3%). The mean age at time of death was 36 years. Forty-six patients were male (50, 5%) and 86 were stage C (94, 5%). At the initiation of treatment, mean CD4 count was 96 cells/mL (1-626) and mean plasma HIV- RNA was 5, 65 log10. They have received antiretroviral therapy for a mean of 9 months (1-48 months). At time of death, 37 patients (52, 8%) had a CD4 count greater than 200 cells/mL and 16 patients (23%) had undetectable plasma viral load. In 57 cases (63%), the death occurred within the first year after start of antiretroviral therapy. The main causes of death were: tuberculosis (35%), cryptosporidiosis (19%), cryptococcosis (13%), cerebral toxoplasmosis (9%), Kaposi sarcoma (6%), non Hodgkin's lymphoma (2%), atypical mycobacteriosis (2%), cerebral lymphoma (1%), aspergillosis (1%), HIV wasting syndrome (1%) and cancer of cervix (1%). Non AIDS related deaths were noticed in three cases (3%) and the immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome in six cases (7%).

CONCLUSION: In Casablanca, the main cause of death among HIV-infected patients is tuberculosis. Collaboration between the national tuberculosis and AIDS programs has been established to improve the prevention, detection, diagnosis and management of HIV/tuberculosis co infection.
