In general terms, syndrome is group of disease.
So, in patients affected with HIV, immunity is destroyed by virus over a long period of time.
Due to decreasing immunity, patient gets prone to opportunistic infections. This causes addition of new diseases over existing conditions. So, in the terminal cases when full blown AIDS is seen a group of diseases appears together, which normally doesn’t(unless immunocompromised due to steroids or other conditions).
Due to this appearance of group of diseases together it is called ‘syndrome’.
