Immune Restoration Disease in HIV Patient
We describe a severely immunosuppressed HIV-1-positive man in whom immune restoration disease associated with pulmonary infection caused by Mycobacterium microti developed after antiretroviral treatment. The diagnosis was made by using convenient spoligotyping techniques, but invasive investigations were required to exclude a tumor.
متن کاملImmune restoration disease in HIV-infected individuals receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy: clinical and immunological characteristics.
BACKGROUND HIV-infected patients responding to HAART can show a diverse spectrum of symptoms caused by inflammatory reaction. The pathogenesis of this phenomenon, called immune restoration disease (IRD), is unclear. This study describes the spectrum of IRD and analyses the immunological and clinical parameters that could be related to its development. METHODS In a retrospective, matched case-...
متن کاملIVIG Anaphylaxis in a patient with Common variable immune deficiency disease (CVID).
Common variable immune deficiency disease (CVID) is one of the most common primary immunodeficiency disorders. It causes reduction of immunoglobulin levels and specific antibodies production and enhancement of recurrent and chronic infections risk, especially respiratory infections and gastrointestinal tracts. Here, we report a case of CVID in a 3 years old male with recurrent hospitalizations ...
متن کاملHIV RNA Suppression and Immune Restoration: Can We Do Better?
HAART has significantly changed the natural history of HIV infection: patients receiving antiretrovirals are usually able to control viremia, even though not all virological responders adequately recover their CD4+ count. The reasons for poor immune restoration are only partially known and they include genetic, demographic and immunologic factors. A crucial element affecting immune recovery is ...
متن کاملFatal bacillary angiomatosis mimicking an infiltrative vascular tumour in the immune restoration phase of an HIV-infected patient.
Bacillary angiomatosis mainly affects the HIV-infected population. Information is limited on the evolution of bacillary angiomatosis during immune restoration following initiation of HAART. We report an unusual case of fatal Bartonella quintana bacillary angiomatosis occurring in an HIV-infected man during the immune restoration phase.
