Chronic vulval ulceration--another immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome?

V Reddy1, G A Luzzi.   

Abstract

We describe a patient who developed intractable chronic vulval ulceration that we believe was related to immune reconstitution following treatment of HIV infection with highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART). Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unexplained vulval ulceration that arises after starting HAART.
