AB  - We present a case of a 39 year old male patient with Acquired Immune Deficiency 
      Syndrome (AIDS) who developed Mycobacterium tuberculosis related Immune 
      Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome (IRIS) after initiation of Highly Active 
      Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) treatment. The inflammatory response resulted in 
      mediastinal necrotic lymphadenopathy and subsequent perforation of the esophageal
