Abstract:
:Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has caused resurgence in tuberculosis (TB) worldwide. HIV-TB coinfected individuals are at increased risk for complications of TB and HIV treatment, such as adverse drug reactions and immune reconstitution syndrome. A 17-year-old male with HIV-TB coinfection, who developed cardiac tamponade from immune reconstitution during treatment for TB and HIV, is reported in this document.
