TI  - Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome presenting as pericarditis and 
      pericardial effusion.
PG  - 142-4
AB  - Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) affects 30-43% of HIV and 
      tuberculosis (TB) co-infected patients after starting highly active 
      antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Pericarditis and pericardial effusion are rare 
      manifestations of IRIS. We report a case of HIV-TB related IRIS that developed 
      pericardial involvement. This complication resolved after treatment with 
      ibuprofen. Antituberculous treatment and HAART were not interrupted.
