Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome & Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection.
Kaposi sarcoma is a low grade multi-focal vascular tumour of endothelial origin. It is the commonest neoplasm in patient with HIV infection and is one of the AIDS-defining illness. In the era of effective highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), Kaposi sarcoma is less commonly seen in recent days. However, in some occasion, immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) can occur after initiation of HAART. Here, we would like to illustrate a case of Kaposi sarcoma as a result of IRIS after initiation of HAART.
