AB  - The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pandemic has disproportionately affected 
      tropical regions of the world, where dermatoses, such as leprosy and 
      leishmaniasis, rarely encountered in temperate climates, are endemic. Although 
      the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been 
      lifesaving, a few patients undergoing HAART experience clinical deterioration 
      caused by immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). This article 
      explores the range of tropical dermatoses that are reported to date with 
      associated IRIS events.
