Background . Complications of HIV-AIDS cases neurological disorders are quite high and also very high mortality, but so far the data on disease epidemiology in Indonesia is still very limited. Objective. Munir, B., & Candradikusuma, D. (2015). Manifestations of HIV/AIDS in Case Neurology: Epidemiology Study at Saiful Anwar Hospital Year 2013-2014. MNJ (Malang Neurology Journal), 1(1), 7–11. https://doi.org/10.21776/ub.mnj.2015.001.01.2 To determine the pattern of HIV-AIDS disease involving the nervous system in patients admitted to Saiful Anwar hospital.

Male gender 47.83%) and 52.17% of women.

The mortality rate of HIV-AIDS cases manifesting high neurology.
