TI  - Soft tissue abscess and lymphadenitis due to Mycobacterium avium complex as an 
      expression of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome after a second scheme 
      of highly active antiretroviral therapy.
PG  - 267-70
AB  - Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is an atypical and unexpected 
      reaction related to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in human 
      immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients. IRIS includes an atypical 
      response to an opportunistic pathogen (generally Mycobacterium tuberculosis, 
      Mycobacterium avium complex, cytomegalovirus and herpes varicella-zoster), in 
      patients responding to HAART with a reduction of plasma viral load and evidence 
      of immune restoration based on increase of CD4+ T-cell count. We reported a case 
      of a patient with AIDS which, after a first failure of HAART, developed a 
      subcutaneous abscess and supraclavicular lymphadenitis as an expression of IRIS 
      due to Mycobacterium avium complex after starting a second scheme of HAART.
