Abstract
Since 1982, the advance of HIV/AIDS infection has radically altered th e management of STDs around the world. Prevention, especially in devel oping countries is paramount. A scientific basis for treatment coupled with epidemiology and case management is required. Discussion to the merits of different forms of treatment, classical clinical, etiologica l and syndromic management, and their evaluation, is described.
