Novel presentation of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome: folliculitis secondary to Malassezia spp.
Folliculitis, as a manifestation of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) during antiretroviral therapy, has only been described in its aseptic form. Here, we describe folliculitis associated with Malassezia spp. as a distinct manifestation of IRIS. The distinction between these two types of IRIS folliculitis is relevant for treatment.
