We report a case of MAC-related IRIS of the CNS in an HIV-infected patient who presented with meningoencephalitis and myelitis 2 months after discontinuation of antiMAC therapy, when he had achieved prolonged suppression of HIV replication and restoration of CD4 counts to >100 cells/μL for 1 year. Cases of MAC-related IRIS of the CNS reported in the literature are reviewed. ? 2011.[SDGs]SDG3abacavir plus lamivudine; amikacin; clarithromycin; ethambutol; levofloxacin; lopinavir plus ritonavir; moxifloxacin; rifabutin; adult; article; atypical mycobacteriosis; case report; CD4 lymphocyte count; human; Human immunodeficiency virus infection; human tissue; immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome; lymph node biopsy; male; meningoencephalitis; Mycobacterium avium; myelitis; rare disease; virus replication; Anti-HIV Agents; CD4 Lymphocyte Count; HIV Infections; Humans; Male; Meningoencephalitis; Mycobacterium avium Complex; Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Infection; Myelitis; Viral Load; Young Adultjournal article10.1016/j.jmii.2011.12.033222273082-s2.0-84872618592
