Abstract
We present the case of an HIV-infected patient who developed reactivation of CMV retinitis after a local steroid injection for the treatment of immune recovery uveitis. He responded promptly to reinduction with ganciclovir and recovered. To our knowledge this is the first case of CMV retinitis reactivation in an HIV-infected patient receiving steroids for immune recovery uveitis.Entities:
