    Abstract:
    This study reports the case of an HIV-infected patient with disseminated tuberculosis who presented an immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) revealed by an acute kidney disease 45 and 15 days after initiation of antituberculosis therapy and HAART, respectively. Prednisone therapy and the transient withdrawal of HAART improved the renal function and the clinical condition of this patient. All published case reports of IRIS revealed by acute renal failure in HIV-infected patients are also reviewed.
