Renal disease is a frequent complication of HIV infection, and a spectrum of renal disorders has been described with diverse histopathologic forms. In this Review, Scott Cohen and colleagues outline the epidemiology of renal disease in HIV and how it has changed since the introduction of combined antiretroviral therapy. They discuss the clinical manifestations and mechanisms underlying renal disease development in patients with HIV, and the issues pertaining to diagnosis and therapeutics.
