Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome-associated Graves disease in HIV-infected patients: clinical characteristics and response to radioactive iodine therapy.

Objectives: We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics and the response to radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome-associated Graves disease (IRIS-GD) in comparison to Graves disease (GD) seen in HIV-uninfected patients.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients treated with RAI for GD. We obtained clinical, biochemical and HIV-related information of patients from their medical records.
