The Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) after starting antiretroviral therapy for HIV is well known. We describe an HIV seropositive woman, presenting 2 IRIS episodes associated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Exceptional was that the last episode occurred 4 years after initiating antiretroviral treatment, when her CD4+ lymphocyte count had been around 300 cells/mm3 for one year.
开始抗逆转录病毒治疗后出现的免疫重建炎症综合征(IRIS)在HIV患者中已为人熟知。我们描述了一名HIV血清阳性女性,出现了2次与结核分枝杆菌相关的IRIS发作。特别的是,最后一次发作发生在开始抗逆转录病毒治疗4年后,当时她的CD4 +淋巴细胞计数已维持在约300个细胞/mm³达一年时间。
