Graves' disease during immune reconstitution in HIV-infected patients treated with HAART.

Autoimmune phenomena after immune recovery due to HAART are not frequently described. Recently we found 3 patients with Graves' disease after starting HAART, outnumbering the expected incidence; 13 patients have been reported in the literature up to the present time.A probable relation between immune restoration and development of Graves' disease might be suspected.
