Introduction: Skin infectious diseases of fungal, bacterial and viral etiology are frequent in HIV-infected patients. HIV infection may change the epidemiology of infectious diseases, leading to atypical manifestations Objectives: 1 Determine the etiologic agents and the more frequent clinical forms of mycoses in HIV infected patients. 2 - Correlate the occurrence of mycoses with CD4 s levels and viral load. 3-Evaluate the frequency of bacterial and viral skin diseases. Methods: A descriptive cross sectional study, which evaluated 86 patients with HIV infection. Sociodemographic and laboratory data collection, dermatological examination were performed and when necessary, scraping the lesion for direct microscopy and fungal culture, if necessary. Results: The mean age was 44.02 (± 12.17) years, 66.3% were men, and the gender ratio 1.97 men: 1 woman. The average time of diagnosis of HIV infection o was 5.59 years. Injuries caused by fungi, bacteria or viruses in keratinized tissues were observed in 58,14% of the patients (39.53% fungal, 18.6% bacterial and 10.46% viral). Onychomycosis was the most common mycoses, and Candida spp. the most frequent agent in these cases. Trichophyton rubrum was the most frequently isolated agent in the whole sample. Patients with CD4 levels less than 50 cells / uL and viral load greater than 50,000 copies / mL had more mycoses. Viral wart was the most frequent viral skin disease and folliculitis was the most frequent bacterial disease. Conclusions: The etiology of superficial mycoses in HIV patients did not differ from those found in the population immunocompetent. However, in some cases, fungal infections manifested in subtle form, with little inflammatory reaction or with more severe and extensive clinical aspects than those usually observed. The higher frequency of cutaneous mycosis was observed in patients with more advanced degrees of immunosuppression
