The paper presents the analysis of the life quality in children and adolescents with HIV infection. In the cases of congenital form of HIV infection quality of life deteriorates during the course of the disease and its’ progression. The quality of life of adolescents with acquired form is low at the stage of diagnostics and does not correspond to intact clinical and immunological parameters. Given the impact on the quality of life on patients’ adaptation adherence to treatment, surveys QUALIN and PedsQLtm4.0 must be included in the standards of care for HIV infection.
