A 53-year-old man with granulomatosis with polyangiitis presented with fever and acute kidney injury with nephrotic-range proteinuria following the second dose of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. Renal biopsy revealed an unexpected immune complex-glomerulonephritis (IC-GN) without vasculitis. Further workup found the patient to have HIV that was unmasked following the treatment of IC-GN. This case report explores the possible relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and the immune response in the setting of chronic HIV.
