Severe dyshidrosis in two patients with HIV infection shortly after starting highly active antiretroviral treatment

Research output: Contribution to journalLetterpeer-review

Abstract

The use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is the gold-standard treatment for HIV infected patients. We here describe two HIV positive patients whose histories are suggestive for dyshidrosis as an immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). Several factors have been associated with the exacerbation of dyshidrosis lesions but no direct relationship with HAART has been reported until now.
