Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients who did not have severe immunodepression were analysed for multiple demyelinating lesions. METHODS:Patients with a CD4 greater than 200/μL were selected after a search was made in a computerised data base. RESULTS:Four patients were found, three were co-infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV), with one of them on treatment with peg-interferón α-2b and ribavirin. CONCLUSION:HIV infected patients can develop demyelinating disease without having severe immunodepression, probably favoured by other factors, such as co-infection wIth HCV.
