Issue: 
Vol 57, Issue 3 (2008) - Special Issue on Paediatric and Perinatal HIV/AIDS in Jamaica

ABSTRACT

The immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is a recognized complication associated with opportunistic infections occurring in HIV-infected individuals after the initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). We report on three HIV-infected infants with rapid progressor HIV disease who present with IRIS due to the BCG vaccine and occurring 3–6 weeks after initiation of HAART.
