Abstract
We report a case of paradoxical recurrent meningitis in response to initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy in a patient receiving maintenance fluconazole for a previous diagnosis of cryptococcal meningitis. We describe the unusual radiographic and histopathologic findings which are consistent with an immune reconstitution induced paradoxical inflammatory response to residual cryptococcal infection.Entities:
