    Abstract:
    A 5-year-old girl presented with disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex infection during advanced human immunodeficiency virus infection. Interferon-gamma or interleukin-2 monotherapy showed only limited effects. Use of a combination of interferon-gamma and interferon-2 resulted in a remarkable improvement in the patient's condition, accompanied by an increase in circulating CD4+ T cells.
