| Resumo: |
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients may develop vasculitis, either mediated by immunological factors or by direct vascular injury. We describe a patient who developed manifestations suggestive of extremities vasculitis with no identifiable risk factors other than HIV, Epstein Barr and Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) type 1 co-infection. Physicians should be aware that vasculitis may have a heterogeneous presentation and occur associated with HIV infection. Although unusual, this association should be recognized for early proper treatment and prevention of ischemia.
