The aim of this review is to analyze epidemiologic publications since the first case was seens in Turkiye on HIV/AIDS and to determine the studies quantity and quality to explore mode of transmission of HIV in the country. All publications published between 1985 and 2022 were reviwed. 756 studies were identified and 54 original articles, guidelines, reports and symposium presentation were included. The types of researches, the number of participants, the participant groups, study location, gender and mode of transmission were examined. HIV/AIDS prevelance is increasing. The mode of transmission is common through heterosexual transmission and men who have sex with men transmission mode is increasing. It was seen that there were not enough large-scale studies at the national level. Further studies on HIV/AIDS should be conducted as national level or multicenter.
