Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), which is based on evidence‑based medicine, focuses on patients and aims to reduce the psychological and physiological trauma stress reactions and complications of patients, thus shortening the duration of hospitalization, promoting rapid recovery and reducing medical expenses, readmission rate and mortality rates. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Patients with HIV/AIDS, as with other patient populations, can suffer from several surgical‑related diseases. Therefore, the need for surgery in this group of patients exists and the surgical services required by patients with AIDS has gradually become an urgent matter of concern. According to relevant literature and the authors' clinical experience, the present review summarizes the current surgical approaches for patients infected with HIV based on ERAS. In the present review, the related issues observed at different stages of surgery, including pre‑operative, intra‑operative, post‑operative and follow‑up stages, are discussed.
