Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndromes (IRIS) in patients with acquired immune deficiency
syndrome (AIDS) are characterised by atypical manifestations of opportunistic pathogens. These occur in patients
experiencing improvement in CD4 cell counts following receipt of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART).
Although well established as a syndrome, IRIS still presents challenges in diagnosis and management. We report
five cases of IRIS with diverse clinical presentations and due to different infectious aetiologies. A review of the
published literature on this syndrome is also included.
