CASTELLANI, Mayra Moreira Xavier    MORETTO, Maria Lívia Tourinho. The experience of HIV diagnosis disclosure: the discourse of health professionals and the listening of the psychoanalyst. []. , 19, 2, pp.24-43. ISSN 1516-0858.

With new advances in the care of people living with HIV/AIDS there was a major improvement in the prognosis and quality of life of children infected by motherto-child-transmission, who arrive in adolescence and adult hood. So, they start living new challenges, as the disclosure of HIV sero status to an intimate partnership. This article aims to present the dilemmas of this kind of experience related to the disclosure, among young adults patients with HIV acquired through mother-to-child-transmission, bringing reflections sustained by psychoanalytic theory. We start from the point of view that there is a differentiated listening of the psychoanalyst in this context and we will demonstrate some psychoanalysis contributions with the specialized health teams who treats these young people, taking into account the delicate hand ling between the time of each subject and the need for the diagnosis disclosure.
