AB  - A 35-year-old Kenian lady with advanced immunodeficiency due to HIV infection 
      started on an antiretroviral therapy. Five months later, a severe colitis was 
      diagnosed, however, no causal pathogen could be found. In order to avoid imminent 
      perforation, a hemicolectomy became necessary, and immediately the symptoms and 
      inflammation markers normalized rapidly. M. tuberculosis could be proven in 
      culture in a draining abdominal lymph node. We assume that the severe 
      inflammation was caused by an immune restoration inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). 
      Essentials in diagnosis, pathogenesis and therapy of IRIS are discussed.
